The scale on a map indicates that 1 inch on the map corresponds to an actual distance of 24 miles. Two cities are 3(3)/(8) inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the two cities?

Answer 1

If 1 inch on the map corresponds to an actual distance of 24 miles, then 3(3)/(8) inches on the map corresponds to 3(3)/(8) * 24 = 3 * 24 + 3/(8) * 24 = <<3*24+3/8*24=81>>81 miles. Answer: \boxed{81}.
