To determine the number of centimeters between Chillicothe and Columbus on the given map, we need to use the scale provided. The scale on the map indicates that 1 inch represents 40 miles.
First, we convert the given distance from miles to inches. The distance between Chillicothe and Columbus is 48 miles. We divide 48 by 40 to find the equivalent distance in inches: 48 miles / 40 miles per inch = 1.2 inches.
Next, we use the scale to convert inches to centimeters. Since 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters, we multiply the distance in inches by 2.54 to get the equivalent distance in centimeters: 1.2 inches * 2.54 centimeters per inch = 3.048 centimeters.
Therefore, the two cities, Chillicothe and Columbus, are approximately 3.048 centimeters apart on the map.
