map scale:
\n" ); document.write( "s = map/real
\n" ); document.write( "s = 1/60
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "s = 5/d
\n" ); document.write( "d = 5/s
\n" ); document.write( "d = 5 in / ( 1 in / 60 mi ) = 300
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Answer:
\n" ); document.write( "the towns are 300 miles from each other
