______miles

Respuesta :

Answer:

A) 4.8 inches =60 miles

B) 3.125, or if you need it rounded to the tenths place, 3.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is find out how many miles equal one inch. There's 25 miles per 2 inches. 25/2 is 12.5 miles per inch.

1 inch= 12.5

60 divided by 12.5= 4.8 inches. So the answer to A is     4.8 inches = 60 miles

For B?

1/4th an inch is 0.25 an inch, and remember that 1 inch=12.5 miles. So we need to find a quarter of the miles.   12.5 divided by 4 is 3.125 miles   The answer to B is 3.125 miles. Rounded up, it's 3.13.

I hope this helps
