For this case we must find the number of miles that Shayna ran in a month.

We know he ran 6 miles in a week.

So, let "x" be the number of miles that Shayna ran in a week:


x = 6

Let "y" be the number of miles that Shayna ran in a month, so if what she ran in a week was
\frac {1} {3} of what she ran in a month we have:


x = \frac {1} {3}y\\6 = \frac {1} {3}y\\18 = y

So, Shayna ran 18 miles in a month

Answer:

18 miles
