The scale on a map reads 1/2 inch = 75 miles. If the distance between two cities on the map is 3 and 1/4 inches, find the actual distance between the cities
since 1/2 inch represents 75 miles and the distance is 3 1/4 inches you need to mulitply 75 X 6 = 450 and then divide 75/2=37.5 then add the two totals
