Answer:

700 miles

Explanation:

Given:

Scale of the map is
$(1)/(2)\textrm{ in}=50\textrm{ mi}$

∴
$1\textrm{ in}= (50)/((1)/(2))=50* 2=100\textrm{ mi}$

Distance of Susan from mount Shasha on the map is 7 inch.

Therefore, Number of miles =
$7* 100=700\textrm{ mi}$

Hence, Susan must travel 700 miles to reach her destination.
