if you are going at a speed of 20 mph means that you travel 10 miles in one hour, so if you are at 20 min we can made the transformation like this:


20\frac{\text{mil}}{\text{hr}}\cdot(1)/(60)(hr)/(\min)=(1)/(3)\frac{\text{mil}}{\min }

So the time take me to arrive there is:


\begin{gathered} D=(1)/(3)\frac{\text{mil}}{\min}\cdot20 \\ D=6,66\text{mil} \end{gathered}

so it take 1/3 of hour or 20 mins to travel 6.66 mil
