How do you find the distance between San Jose and Brisbane on a map with a scale of 1 in : 8 mi if they are actually 48 mi apart.

Answer» SCALE USED in map is 1 INCH = 8 MILES.
actual distance = 48 miles.
if 8 miles is REPRESENTED in 1 inch,
1 mile will be represented in = \frac{1}{8}\ inch
48 miles will be represented in = 48 \times \frac{1}{8}=\boxed{6\ inch}
