A to B: Since the scale does not change,
60/(3/4) = x/(4 5/8)
60*4/3 = x * 37/8
x = 60 * 4/3 * 8/37
Do the other parts the same way.
Remember that the scale does not change! If a distance is twice a big on the map, it is twice as big in the world.
On a map 3/6 inch represents 60 kilometers. Distance A to B is 4 5/8 inches. Distance C to D is 5 3/5 inches. Distance E to F is 9 5/6 inches.
What is the number of kilometers between A and B?
What is the number of kilometers between C and D?
What is the distance between E and F?
If Jack has to travel from point A to F, what is the total map distance and the actual kilometers he will cover?
