My first instinct was to count the minutes across the bottom of the chart. This totaled 75 minutes which would equal 75 nmi. However, the answer was not 75 nmi it is by measuring nmi from the scale as you would on the latitude. Why show the minutes on the longitude but you cannot use that as measurement?
How does a minute equal a nautical mile if in fact it doesn't measure that way?
