Question

A map has the scale 2 inches equals 190 miles. The distance from Springfield to Glenview is 14 inches. How many actual miles separate Springfield from Glenview?

A.
140
B.
2,800
C.
1,330
D.
38

Answer 1

It would be C because

Explanation:

2= 190

So what i did was i divide 190 to 2 and i got 95

and to the 14 I multiply it o 95 and i got 1,330

How i got 1,330 is that i read the question and looked at the answers which is a bigger number. So i thought it ain't adding or subtracting. So i decided to do dividing 190/2= 95 then i multiplied 14 to 95
