Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{5}\frac{in}{miles}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The original scale of the map is

[tex]\frac{2}{30}\frac{in}{miles}=\frac{1}{15}\frac{in}{miles}[/tex]

If the map is enlarged to 3 times its size

then

the new scale will be

[tex]\frac{2*3}{30}\frac{in}{miles}=\frac{6}{30}=\frac{1}{5}\frac{in}{miles}[/tex]
