Question 1057481: On a map, Bangor is 3 inches from Presque Isle, when they are actually 159 miles apart. If Caribou to Portland is 299 miles, how many inches apart would they be on the map? (Round to the nearest hundredth of an inch) Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
159 miles = 3 inches
1 mile = 3/159
299 miles = 3/159 x 299
= 5.64 inches.
Hope this helps :-)
