Answer:

775 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Merritt is driving to Mount Shasta.

On her map she is a distance of \(7\frac{3}{4}\) inches away.

The scale of the map is 1/2 inch = 50 miles.

Therefore, 1 inch on map = 100 miles.

Her actual distance  =  \(7\frac{3}{4}\) inches × 100

                                 =  \(\frac{31}{4}\) × 100

                                 =  \(\frac{31}{1}\) × 25

                                 = 775 miles

Merritt is 775 miles far to reach her destination.
