Answer: 3.387 miles (approximate)

==============================================

Work Shown:

Method 1

(3 miles)/(62 min) = (x miles)/(70 min)

3/62 = x/70

3*70 = 62x

210 = 62x

x = 210/62

x = 3.38709677 approximately

She walks about 3.387 miles in 70 minutes.

------------

Method 2

She walks 3 miles in 62 minutes. Her unit rate is 3/62 of a mile per minute.

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

d = (3/62 mi per min)*(70 min)

d = (3/62)*(70)

d = 3.38709677 approximately
