Answer:
1.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the scale, we can simply multiply the distance that Sonja measured on the map by the actual mile distance that it states on the scale (1/2 or 0.5) to calculate the actual distance between Sonja's house and Sal's house like so...
3 * 0.5 = 1.5 miles
Therefore, we can see now that there is a total actual distance of 1.5 miles between both of their houses, which is represented as 3 inches on the map.
