the scale on a map is 2 cm= 15 miles Bryan measures the distance to the next town is at 7 cm away how many miles away would the next town be

Answer 1

First, find out how many miles one centimeter equals:

15 miles/2cm= 7.5

This means that 1 cm= 7.5 miles.

Now multiply 7.5 and 7 to find out how many miles away the next town is:

(7.5)(7)= 52.5

So the next town is approximately 52.5 miles away.
