Answer:

5 miles

Explanation:

Let's first break down the question.

Suzie has a total of 32 minutes for her run. She runs 1 mile in 5 minutes and then after running she cools down for 7 minutes.

So then, now for the math...

5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 7 = 32 minutes

5 * 5 = 25

25 + 7 = 32

During her time limit she will run a total she will run 5 miles.
