Using the principle of proportional relationship, the length of 1 mile on the map would be 1/3 inches

Setting up the relationship thus :

1/4 inch = 3/4 mile

x inch = 1 mile

Cross multiply :

0.75x = 0.25

Divide both sides by 0.75

0.75x/0.75 = 0.25/0.75

x = 1/3 inches

Hence, 1 mile will be 1/3 inches long on the map.
