Divide the actual distance of the scale by the map distance of the scale, which is 15/0.25 = 60. This shows that the scale is 1 cm:60 miles.

If the distance between two cities on a map is 6.8 cm, multiply by 60 to get the real distance between the two cities in miles, which is 408 miles.

408 miles

Hope this helped!
