Answer 2

In the question , it is given that

The distance between spice Island and Kay island is 3.4 inches on a map.

And on the map, 1 inch is representing 25 miles .

So we need to find how many miles are represented by 3.4 inches .

And for that , we have to multiply 25 and 3.4 , that is

`25*3.4 = 85 miles`

And that's the required answer .
