7. As a class We are going to use the map to find the distance from Syracuse to Oneonta Remember you can only stay on roads!!

9. Adding together to distances Down ¼ in To the right 1 3 / 16 Down 7/16 In the calculator: (1/4) + 1 + (3/16) + (7/16)

10. Total distance From Syracuse to Oneonta is 15 / 8 Using the scale, measure for 20 miles. 20 miles = 3/8 in
