Question

The distance from Town A to Town B on a map is 6 inches. The actual distance from Town B to Town C is 12 miles. The scale on the map is 1in: 4 mi. Determine if each statement is True or False.

The actual distance from A to B is 24 mi
The distance from B to C on the map is 36in
The actual distance from A to C is 4.5 mi

Answer 1

true since each inch is 4 miles you time 6 by 4
false it says it is 12 miles so you divide that by 4 to get the inches
false if A to B is 24 and B to C is 12 miles there is clearly much more then 4 miles between A and C
