A map has a scale of 1 inch represents 25 miles. If the distance between the two cities on the map is 6 inches how far apart are the cities in real life?
To find the distance between the two cities in real life, we need to convert the length on the map to the actual distance.
Given that 1 inch on the map represents 25 miles, we can set up a proportion:
1 inch on the map = 25 miles in real life
Therefore, 6 inches on the map would be 6 * 25 = <<6*25=150>>150 miles in real life.
Hence, the distance between the two cities in real life is 150 miles.
