The distance from New York City to Riverhead is approximately 150 miles. On a map whose scale is 24mi= 2inch, what is the distance between the two locations in inches?​

12.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To best find this answer, we should set up a proportion. Our first fraction is practically given to us in the problem, and would look like this:

Next, we need to set up our second fraction. An important thing to make sure of is that the 150 is on the same side as the 24 since they are both miles. Here is what the final equation should look like:

To solve, just cross multiply and divide! First, multiply 2 by 150, giving you 300. Next, just divide the 300 by the remaining 24, giving you a final answer of 12.5 inches. Here's what the final calculations look like:

2in X 150mi = 300

300 / 24mi = 12.5in

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

multiplication is multiplication.   it might feel harder depending on what level of math you are in, but generally it will be the same old stuff, while implementing some new concepts and methods of solving work.
