Answer: 10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of the road is 1000 miles

Solve

  • The length of the map to real=1 : 100
  • Let x be the length on the map

1 : 100 = x : 1000 ⇔ Proportion Set Up

100x = 1000 ⇔ Cross Multiply

100x/100 = 1000/100 ⇔ Divide both sides by 100

x=10 ⇔ Simplify

Hope this helps!! :)
