Answer: 10 miles per half hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between an hour and half an hour is an hour is 2 times longer than a
(1)/(2) hour.

Since we are given the speed per hour, the speed per half an hour is 2 times less than the speed per hour.

We know the speed per hour is 20 miles. If the speed is 2 times less for half an hour, we need to divide
(20)/(2). The answer to that is 10, therefore you will run miles per half hour.

Hope that helped a lot.
