Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The entire question is:
A map shows the town where Niko lives. The actual distance from Niko's house to his school is 3 miles and measures one-half inch on the map. The actual distance from Niko's school to the library is 4 miles. How long is this distance on the map?
To solve this problem, we can apply the rule of three, if 3 miles are one-half inch on the map, how long would be on the map for 4 miles.
[tex]x=4miles\frac{\frac{1}{2}in }{3miles}=4\frac{1}{6}in=\frac{2}{3}in[/tex]
Therefore, 4 miles would be 2-thirds inch on the map.
