A map scale on a road map of Ohio says, “One inch equals 5.1 miles.” You measure along Route 70 and the distance between Columbus and Whoville is 4 inches. What is the actual distance between the towns?

To find the actual distance of the town you have to multiply 4 and 5.1 and you get 20.4 so the distance is 20.4 miles
