Question

On a map of Minnesota, one inch represents 65 miles. If the cities of Minneapolis and St. Cloud

are about 5 inches apart on the map, how many miles would you have to drive to go from one to
the other?

Answer 1

325 miles. If one inch is 65 miles and the two locations are 5 inches apart, 65 x 5 is 325.

Fun fact: Minneapolis to St. Cloud in reality is only 70 miles. ;)
