Amber is traveling to he mom's house. The scale on the map is 2 inches=10 miles. She knows her mom lives 40 miles away. How far would that be on the map?

8 inches on the map. To approach this problem, just set up a proportion:

2in =10 mi x in =40 mi.

If we use that to set up an equation we get

80 =10x.

Solve that, you get 8.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need more help.
