Answer:

6.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

4 miles           x miles

------------- = ----------------

30 minutes       48 minutes

Using cross products

4 * 48 = 30x

192 = 30x

Divide each side by 30

192/30 = x

6.4 miles =x

Answer:

6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a proportion.

4/30 = x/48

Reduce.

2/15 = x/48

Cross multiply.

15x = 2 * 48

15x = 96

x = 6.4
