Answer:

3.125 inches, or about 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

setting up your problem: [tex]\frac{1}{24} = \frac{x}{75}[/tex]

cross-multiply to get: 75 = 24x

divide by 24 to get the variable alone: [tex]\frac{75}{24} = \frac{24x}{24}[/tex]

you are left with: 3.125 = x

* x stood for the missing length, the length on the map
