A map is shown with a scale drawing of 1 inch = 15 miles,nicloe measured the distance to the next town as 3 inches. How many miles does she have to travel to get to the next town

Answer 1

Answer: There are 45 miles that she have to travel to get to the next down.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

1 inch = 15 miles

If there are given 3 inches.

We need to find the number of miles she have to travel to get to travel to get to the next town.

So, it becomes,

`(1)/(15)=(3)/(x)\\\\x=15* 3\\\\x=45\ miles`

Hence, there are 45 miles that she have to travel to get to the next down.
