48 x 5 = 240, 48 x 2.5 = 120 so 360 miles.
If you are reading a map it is important to understand the scale of the map. In this instance you will travel 5 inches in 175 miles.
1170 miles
That depends on the scale. If an inch equals 100 miles, they will be 3.22 inches apart. If an inch equals 50 miles, they will be 6.44 inches apart.
The numerical scale on a map shows how many units of measurement taken from the scale represents the actual distance on the ground. If a and b are 2 miles apart on the ground, the a and b shown on the map should also represent 2 miles apart when measured on the numerical scale.
1 inch equals 15 miles
There are 63360 inches in a mile. The real distance is 1250 miles So you need to multiply these two figures and you get 79,200,000. Now on the map, 10 inches represents 79,200,000 inches in real life. So the scale is 79,200,000 ÷ 10 = 7,920,000 or roughly 1:8 million.
64 divided by 3.25 equals 19.7. Problem solved
A scale on a map states that every ¼ of an inch represents 20 miles. If two cities are 3 ½ inches apart, how many miles are actually between the two cities?
400 / 2.5 = 160 miles per inch
That depends on the scale. If an inch equals 100 miles, they will be 3.22 inches apart. If an inch equals 50 miles, they will be 6.44 inches apart.
1.5 cm = 25 miles/1.5 /1.51cm = 16.6666..... or just 50/3 in a fraction form.then 190 miles / 16.6666.... miles = 11.4so it is 11.4 cm on the map.
The scale is simply how many miles there are to an inch or how many miles are represented by an inch etc etc. To do this you divide the amount of miles or the larger amount by the inches the smaller amount. 400/2.5 = 160 . The scale is 160 miles per inch. Proof - 160 + 160 + 80 = 400 miles ---->>>> 1 + 1 + .5 = 2.5 inches
depends on the scale of the map...
In this question of scale, if the two cities are 8cm apart and the scale is equal to 2 cm per 1 km, then the cities would be 4 km apart.
I need the answer too for my homework :D
It depends on the scale of the map.
The numerical scale on a map shows how many units of measurement taken from the scale represents the actual distance on the ground. If a and b are 2 miles apart on the ground, the a and b shown on the map should also represent 2 miles apart when measured on the numerical scale.
82.5 inches.
