That would be a world map. To give you a reference, the US from east coast to west coast is about 3000 miles. So the length on a map of the US would be about 2 inches.

Which has the smaller scale a map on which 1 inch equals 100 miles or a map on which 1 equals 200 miles?
1 inch equals 100 miles would be the smaller scale, as 1 inch on the map would be a plot of 100 miles of terrain, as opposed to 200 miles of terrain.
If you are drawing a map in which the scale is 1 equals 2 miles how many inches would it take to show 10 miles?
5 inches will equal 10 miles if the scale is 1 inch equals 2 miles
If you are drawing a map in which the scale is 1 inch equals 2 miles?
You should probably finish your question.
If a map scale that 1 inch equals 400 miles what would 2.5 equal?
1,000 miles
Would 1 inch equal 14 mile or 400 miles why?
To answer that question, I would need the context which details a scale. If one inch on a scale equals 14 miles, that scale remains the same. So two inches (which equals 1 times 2) would translate into 28 miles (because 14 times 2 is 28). The same would hold true for 400 miles. If one inch equals 400 miles, two inches equals 800 miles, and three inches equals 1200 miles.
If the scale on a map is 1 inch equals 2 miles how many inches would it take to travel 12 miles?
On that scale... 6 inches !
How many miles would 1 foot represent if 1 in. equals 30 mi. on a map scale?
It would be 360 miles.
Where would you most likely to find a scale of 1 inch equals 1500 miles?
On a map.
Would you find a scale of 1 inch equals 1500 miles on a map of your city state or world?
World
If one inch equals two miles how many inches would 12 miles be?
On the scale 1 inch:2 miles. 12 miles would be 6 inches
Which has the smaller scale map which 1 inch equals 100 miles or map which 1 inch equals 200 miles?
200 because it would have more miles in the inch than 100 miles.
Would you probably find a scale of 1 inch equaling 1500 miles on a map of a city state or world?
Map scales are given in 1 of 3 ways. The type of scale in your question is called the simple verbal scale. A scale of 1in equals 1,500 miles would certainly not be used on a map of a city and only on an overview map of the world. To put it in perspective, the earth's circumference at the equator is 24, 902 miles so depicting the world on a scale of 1in equals 1,500 miles would give a map width of only 16.6013in (40.957cm).Or put it like this, on a map with a scale of 1in equals 1,500 miles, the USA would be roughly 1.333in wide and the Atlantic Ocean only 2.5in wide. A map drawn to a scale of 1in equals 1,500 miles would only be suitable for overviews to depict countries and oceans in relation to each other. It would be too small to show any real detail.Another type of scale is the fractional scale. If the scale is 1:1,500, this would equate roughly to a verbal scale of 1in equals1/4 mile, which would be a far more suitable scale for a city map.
