the solution is a ratio between 1 and 150 compared to 3/4 to x. To solve this just cross multiply.
1/150 = 3/4 / x
Know how to cross multiply? Just multiply the numerator(top) by the denominator on the other side. So you get 1x= 150 times 3/4. to solve 150 times 3/4, multiply 150 by the numerator and divide by the denominator
150 times 3=450divide by 4=112.5
x=112.5 miles

Divide 150 by 4. The multiply it by three. Then you get 3/4 of 150 or an inch!

ok 1 inch is 150
divide by 4.. to get 1/4 of it
1/4 of 150 is 37.5
you need 3/4 correct?
you now multiply 37.5 by 3
3 x 37.5 = 112.5
3/4 of 150 = 112.5
hope i helped
