🔍 Key Concepts

• River-mile references and how mileage is measured along the Mississippi River System • Distinguish the relevant river reach or route segment from the abbreviation table in the illustration • The earlier mileage framework established in step 1

💭 Think About

• How can you identify the two endpoints named—Baton Rouge and St. Louis—and determine whether the requested distance is a simple difference between mile markers or a sum across connected river reaches? • What information does the illustration actually provide, and which chart/map mileage values would you need to use for this route?

✅ Before You Answer

• Use the Mississippi River System route mileage, not a straight-line distance. • Check whether the route crosses a mileage reference or changes river reaches, and combine the appropriate segments consistently with step 1.
