    If 3 inches represents 15 miles, then that means 1 inch represents 15/3 = 5 miles. That means that 5 inches represents 5 * 5 = 25 miles.

    The answer is choice (A).

    If 3 inches represents 15 miles, then you have to figure out what one inch represents. 3/3 is 1, and 15/3 is 5. so one inch represents 5 miles. 5inches times 5 is 25miles.
