Each a
Step Closer
NY / LA
Audra lives in New York: (40.7
N, 74 W)
Gary lives in Los Angeles: (34 N, 118.3
W)
Using the step ratios from the scale
below, they find new coordinates:
(180 - (9/8 (90))) - 40.7
= 38
(180 - (19/10 (90))) - 34 =
25
(360 - (9/8 (180))) - 74
= 83.5 (360 - (19/10
(180))) - 118.3 = 100.3
Coordinates are used as absolute values
and then returned to their original sign (hemisphere).
Gary travels to Monterrey, Mexico: (25
N, 100.3 W)
Audra travels to Daniel Boone National
Forest in Kentucky: (38 N, 83.5 W)
Audra's 9/8 ratio is a whole-step up
(about 575 miles), and Gary's 19/10 ratio is a half-step down (about
1550 miles).
