On a particular map, 3 inches on the map equates to 10 miles in real life. If you know that the real-life distance between two buildings on the map is 53.25 miles, what would the distance between the buildings be (in inches) on the map, expressed as a fraction?

Step-by-step explanation:

On the map, 3 inches = 10 miles in real life.

Therefore:

10 miles: 3 Inches

If the real-life distance between two buildings is 53.25 miles

Distance on the map

The distance between the two buildings on the map is therefore:

(x, y)→(x − 8, y − 7)
