the sale on a map is 1 in. :20mi. The actual distance between the two cities is 240 miles. What is the distance between the cites on the map?

Respuesta :

The ratio is 1 / 20 in/mile

It would be equal to the other ratio which is x / 240
x/240 = 1/20
x = 240 / 20
x = 12 

In short, Your Answer would be 12 inches

Hope this helps!
