Everglades National Park is 225 mi long. What scale is needed to draw a map of Everglades National Park that is 10 in. long?


A. 1 in. = 22.5 mi

B. 10 in. = 225 mi

C. 1 in. = 0.04 mi

D. 10 in. = 22.5 mi

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. 1 in. = 22.5 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 22.5 x 10 = 225, we can conclude that this will fit the scale needed. B. is incorrect because it is simply illogical in context with a scale and the question. C. is incorrect since 10 x 0.04 is 0.4, which does not equal 10. D. is incorrect since we need the scale to add up to equal 225 mi, not 22.5.

Hope this helps!
