On a map, 1.5 centimeters represents a distance of 45 kilometers. if two points on the map are 0.8 centimeters apart, what is the actual distance between the two points?

Write a proportion
centimeters / kilometers
1.5 / 45 = 0.8 / x
cross multiply
(1.5 * x ) = (45 * 0.8)
1.5x = 36
divide both sides by 1.5
x = 24

The actual distance between the two points is 24 kilometers.

Hope this helps

1.) 18+5 is one way i’m pretty sure there are others but i can’t think of them right now

52 or what they said ☝️
