To find the distance between Lewis City and Jenkinsville on the scale drawing, use the ratio of the actual distance between the two towns (60 km) to the actual distance between Lewis City and Bellstown (120 km).
So, 60 km / 120 km = x (scale distance between Jenkinsville and Lewis City) / 6 cm
Solving for x, x = 3 cm.
Therefore, Lewis City and Jenkinsville are 3 centimeters apart on Arturo's drawing.
