Answer:

C. 1 inch = 23 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the scale, add the scale distances shown first.

2.25 + 1.75 = 4 inches on the map

Now, divide the actual mileage (92 miles) by how long it was on the map.

92 / 4

92 = 80 + 12

92/4 = (80/4) + (12/4)

92/4 = 20 + 3

92/4 = 23 miles

That means 1 inch on this map is actually 23 miles. So the scale of the map is 1 inch = 23 miles, which is C.
