A map distance of 5 inches represents 200 miles of actual distance. Suppose the distance between two cities on the map is 7 inches. What is the actual distance between the two cities? Write the rule you used to find the actual distance.

5 inches are 200 miles thus one inch is 200/5=40 miles hence 7 inches is 7*40=280 miles
200 divide by 5 then multiply by 7 = 280 miles
