What does a scale mean on a map?
The scale on the map is a ratio of real size to that on the map, Say you see a scale that says 1:50 miles, That is telling you that for every 1 inch or cm (depending on the map) is 50 miles in real life. It's to help you get an idea of how far a place is by comparing it to another.

If three fourths of an inch on a map is 750 miles than how many miles is an inch?
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.
How can a distance scale on a map help you understand distance in real life?
If a map is to scale that means that everything on the map is equal proportion to everything in real life. For instance, if 1cm on the map is given as 500m in real life, then everything will follow this proportion. If two places are a kilometre apart, they will be 2cm apart on the map. If two places are 2.5km apart, they will be 5cm apart on the map. This is helpful as it means you can quickly work out what the real life distance is going to be from a map. You can also see what places are exactly half way in between two points on the map, and can use it to plan the shortest route from A to B in real life.
