The zoo is 12 inches from the school on the map

How to determine the distance in inches?

The given parameters can be represented using the following ratio:

Ratio = 1 inch : 3 miles

For 12 miles, we have:

Distance :12 miles = 1 inch : 3 miles

Multiply by 4

Distance :12 miles = 4 inches : 12 miles

By comparison, we have:

Distance = 12 miles

Hence, the zoo is 12 inches from the school on the map
