How many half inches are in 3.25? ie what is 3.25/0.5

anonymous · Answer

its 6.5

anonymous · Answer

if 0.5 inches represent 8 miles, ask yourself how many miles can be represented by one inch. So how many miles/inch? After you have the number of miles/per inch, multiply that by 3.25 to get the distance in miles!
