The cities are 14.7 inches apart on the map.  

An inch on the map is 10 miles on the ground. That is what a scale of 1 in  :  10 miles means.

If a distance is 147 miles on the ground therefore, on the map it will be:

= Distance on map / conversion factor

= 147 / 10

= 14.7 inches

The distance between the two cities on the map is 14.7 inches.
