Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Not very big.

1" = 200 feet

x = 1200 feet

1/x = 200/1200                Cross multiply

200 x = 1200 * 1              Combine

200x = 1200                    Divide by 200

x = 1200 / 200

x = 6

Remark: the feet (one on each of the  equal sign cancel out. All that is left is inches. So 6 is in inches.
