Question 1033937: The scale on a map indicates that 1 inch on the map corresponds to an actual distance of 100 miles. Two cities are 2.7 inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the two cities? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) Answer by jorel555(1290) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the ratio of map to actual miles is 1 inch per 100 miles, then 2.7 inches corresponds to a distance of 2.7 x 100 miles = 270.0 miles of actual distance between the two points!!!!!!
