A map has a scale of 2 centimeters = 4 miles. Mary's drive to work is represented on the map as traveling 1cm north then 2.5 cm west. Which equation could be used to determine how many miles Mary drives to work?

Mary drives 7 miles!

2cm / 4mi = 1cm / 2mi

1(2) + 2.5(2) = 7

Please let me know if I am wrong.
