The scale on a map shows 1 cm = 5 km. On this same map, the distance between Clarkstown and Millburn is 3.5 cm. What is the actual distance between Clarkstown and Millburn?

Answer:

15.10 km

Explanation:

All you would have to do is add 5 km every time you add 1 cm. Then for the .5 you would divide 5 by .5 to get the second part of the answer.

Hope this helps!

I got it wrong I'm sorry!
