Nate and Nora are making a map of Africa for their geography class. Their
teacher told them to use a scale of 1 inch equals 500 miles. Africa is
approximately 5,510 miles from north to south and 4,520 miles from east to west.
Will the map fit on a standard piece of paper that is 11 inches long and 8 inches
wide? If it fits, will it fill the page or will the scale need to be adjusted?
If it does not fit, what would be a better scale to use?
