Jake's map shows the distance form the Back stars Cafe to the restaurant supply store as 3 centimetre. If the scale of the map is 1 centimetre to 8 kilometres, what is the real distance from the shop to the store?

Answer:

X=24km
The real distance from the shop to the store is 24.

Use direct proportions to evaluate the distance from the cafe to the store

X=8km times 3cm/1cm
X=24km
