If three fourths of an inch on a map is 750 miles than how many miles is an inch?

Answer 1

3/4 of an inch on the map is 750 miles in real life. So 0.75 inches on the map=750 miles in real life. You need to multiply 3/4 of an inch by 1 and 1/3 to get 1 inch. So you also multiply 750 miles by 1 and 1/3 as well. 750 multiplied by 1 and 1/3= 750 multiplied by 4/3, which is 1000.

So one inch on the map is 1000 miles in real life.
