On a map, 0.25 inches represents 1 mile. what is the area of a rectangle on the map that is 3.75 inches long and 2.25 inches wide?

Hi,
First we need to find 3.75/0.25, then multiply that with 1(same number),since 0.25 inch =1 mile
3.75/0.25=15
That means length=15 miles
Find width in the same way.
2.25/0.25=9
Width=9 miles
a=l*b
a=15*9
a=135 sq. miles
Hope this helps you.
