Question

The distance between City A and City B is 250 miles. A length of 1.9 feet represents this distance on a certain wall map. City C and City D are 4.94 feet apart on this map. What is the actual distance between City C and City​ D?

Answer 1

"What is the actual distance between City C and D?"

650 miles

Explanation:

From what I can understand (d) will represent our missing distance...

first, we'll cross multiply like so
`(250mi)/(1.9ft) = (d)/(4.94ft)` then you would end up with 250(4.94) = 1.9(d) next reposition them like this
`(250(4.94))/(1.9) = d` and solve from here 250(4.94) = 1,235 divides this by 1.9
`(1,235)/(1.9) = d` finally, you have your answer 650 = d

I hope this helps you!

Answer 2

250/1.9 = 131.6
131.6 x 4.94 = 650.1
The actual distance is 650.1 miles
