Answer: 6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply proportions:

Willie run 5 miles in 30 minutes

The ´proportion is : 5 miles / 30 minutes

For 36 minutes:

x miles /36 minutes, where x is the number of miles.

So:

5/30 = x/36

(5/30)36 =x

x = 6 miles

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
