On a map, 2 1/2 cm represents 60 km. what is the actual distance between two cities that are 5 1/2 cm apart on the map?

They would be 132km apart

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we need to set up a proportion. To make that easier, let's first change the fractions into decimals.

2 1/2 = 2.5

5 1/2 = 5.5

Now we can put the scale in the right side fraction and the distance in the left.

2.5cm/60km = 5.5cm/xkm

Now cross multiply to solve

60 * 5.5 = 2.5 * x

330 = 2.5x

132 = x

50.6
