Question

The scale on a map is 2 cm = 25 miles. Dave measured the distance to the next town at 5 cm. How many miles away is the next town? @xiogonz

Answer 1

What do you think the answer is ?

Answer 2

idk

Answer 3

You need to occupy the simple rule of 3 in this case.

Scale on the map--2cm=25m(miles)

For each 2cm=real distance of 25m(miles)

Here we see " Dave measured the distance to the next town at 5 cm."

So

2cm-25m(miles)

5cm-xm(miles)

2x=25*5

x=62.5

That's your answer

62.5
