The scale on a map is 1 inch = 2 1/2 miles. If two landmarks on the map

are 1 3/4inches apart, what is the actual distance between them?

Hi, first thing to do is divide 2.5 by 4 which is 0.625and you can either multiply 0.625 by three or subtract it from 2.5. So the answer comes out to be 1.875. You're welcome and have a nice day
