From Sidon to Greenville, what is the listed mileage?

The mile value on a map segment between two towns shows how far you must travel from the first town to reach the second, and the direction tells you where the second town lies relative to the first. In this case, Greenville sits about 13 miles to the northwest of Sidon, so the listed mileage from Sidon to Greenville is 13 miles NW. The other options would imply a longer leg or a different direction than what the chart shows for that segment, so they don’t match the depicted route.
