Question

The distance between two points on a map varies directly with the actual

distance between the locations. On a map, the distance between New
York City and Boston is 3.5 in. The actual distance between the two
cities is 208 mi. On a map, the distance between New York City and
Philadelphia is 1.75 in. What is the actual distance between New York
City and Philadelphia?
