75 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent distance in miles.

We have been given that a map scale reads 2 inches equals 25 miles. We are asked to find the distance represented by 6 inches.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

$\frac{x}{\text{6 inches}}=\frac{\text{25 miles}}{\text{2 inches}}$

$\frac{x}{\text{6 inches}}*\text{6 inches}=\frac{\text{25 miles}}{\text{2 inches}}*\text{6 inches}$

$x=\text{25 miles}*3$

$x=\text{75 miles}$

Therefore, 6 inches represent 75 miles.
