Answer:

253440 miles

Explanation:

This exercise desires to test our knowledge of units conversion,

now, given that on the map 1 inch represents 4 miles

the distance of 1mile when converted to inches ordinarily would be

1mile is 63360 inches

since on the map

1 inch represents 4 miles

63360 inches represents Xmiles

cross multiply we have

X would be = 63360*4

On a map one mile would be 253440 miles
