On a map to cities are about 50 mm apart if the scale is 1 cm equals 15.5 miles how far apart are the two cities

Given:

On a map to cities are about 50 mm apart.

Scale is 1 cm equals 15.5 miles.

To find:

The distance between two cities.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

1 cm = 15.5 miles

It means

10 mm = 15.5 miles             [1 cm = 10 mm]

Now,

10 mm on a map = 15.5 miles

1 mm on a map = miles

                          = 1.55 miles

50 mm on a map = 50 × 1.55 miles

                            = 77.5

Therefore, the two cities are 77.5 miles apart.
