ethan is planning to drive from boston to atlanta. he measured a distance of
6 7/8
inches between the two cities on the national map in his road atlas. a scale of 1 inch: 160 miles is displayed on this map.

what does this scale mean?

The distance between the two cities is 1100 miles, and the scale means that each represents 160 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

According to the given information, 1 inch on the map equals 160 miles of the real distance.

So, we have to just multiply the distance of the map with the given ratio. However, we first need to transform the mixed number in to a fraction

Then, we multiply

Therefore, the distance between the two cities is 1100 miles, and the scale means that each represents 160 miles.

step-by-step explanation:

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.
