Answer:  375 miles

==========================================

Work Shown:

5/8 = 0.625

1 inch : 600 miles

0.625*(1 inch) : 0.625*(600 miles)

0.625 inches : 375 miles

--------

An alternative way to solve is like this

(1 inch)/(600 miles) = (0.625 inches)/(x miles)

1/600 = 0.625/x

1*x = 600*0.625

x = 375
