No. Every map has a key to the scale. Look at them to see how many inches equal how many miles.

no. all maps are scaled down to an accourding size. this scale is usually noted in a corner of the map.
if you would make an inch equal the same size on every map, the map of arizona would be mostly empty with arizona in the centre, while the map of the us would nicely fit, and the map of the world would go off the paper.

look below the map and the legends should be able to tell you the distance measurement.
