Answer
$60\;mi$
Work Step by Step
The distance on the map measures $a=1\frac{7}{8}\;in$.
Let the actual distance is $=d$.
Equate the scare drawing ratio with $a:d$.
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{32}=\frac{1\frac{7}{8}}{d}$
Cross multiply.
$\Rightarrow 1d=32(1\frac{7}{8})$
Simplify.
$\Rightarrow d=32(\frac{15}{8})$
$\Rightarrow d=60\;mi$.
