Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

Given that the scale of the map is

 2cm to represent 30 miles

That is  every 1 cm is 15 miles in reality

step one:

what we are solving for is the distance in cm on the map so,

1cm rep 15miles

xcm rep 75miles

cross multiply

Xcm= 75/15

X= 5 cm

hence on the map 75miles distance between the two towns is seen as 5 cm
