Okay, well remember we got 12.25 when we divided? Now we multiply that to 1/4, what's \(\sf 12.25 \times 0.25\)?

Answer 7

3.0625

Answer 8

Yep, so \(\dfrac{1}{4}\) inches on the map represents 3.0625 miles.

Answer 9

I dont quite get that could u do it one more time plz

Answer 10

Well in the last question it said 2 inches is 25 miles.

So we can set up a proportion, we plug in 0.25 because that represents 1/4 inches, and 'x' represents the number of miles we want to find.

\(\sf \dfrac{2}{25} = \dfrac{0.25}{x}\)

Cross multiply:

\(\sf 6.25 = 2x\)

Divide 2 to both sides:

\(\sf x = 3.0625\)
