Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Short answer: 280 miles.

Why?

You can find this out by finding out how much 1 in is by dividing 200 by 5. (200 / 5 ==> 40) So 1 in = 40 miles. Now, we multiply that by 7, so we can find out how much 7 in would be. (7 * 4 ==> 280) 7 inches on the map represents 280 miles.

Hope this helped you! ♥
