The scale on a map is 1/4 inch to 4 miles. find the actual distance between two towns for which the distance is presented by 25 inches on the map.

400 miles because each inch is 16 miles and there is 25 inches so 16 times 25

The answer is, 400 miles, how I got my answer.

I first multiplied .25 which is 1/4 or one quarter times 4, .25×4=1 so then I multiplied 4×4=16, so now I know for every 1 inch is 16 miles, last I have to multiply 16 which represents miles times 25 which represents inches, 16×25=400.

I hope this helps!
