To find the actual distance you will convert the 2 feet to inches because the scale is given in miles to inches.
2 feet = 24 inches
128 miles/6 inches is the scale.
I would create an equivalent ratio using this scale and the 24 inches.
128 miles/6 inches=x miles/24 inches
To go from 6 inches to 24 inches, you will need 4 groups of 6 inches.
You would also need 4 groups of 128 miles.
4 x 128 = 512 miles
The distance between these 2 towns is 512 miles.
