Amap has a scale of 1 inch: 25 mi. two cities are 175 mi apart. how far apart are they on the map

Hello!

Let's write this as a proportion and solve.

We cross-multiply, giving us the equation below.

25x=175

We divide both sides by 25.

x=7

Therefore, the cities are 7 inches apart.

I hope this helps!
