Answer:

Explanation:

(1/2 mile)/(1/12 hour) = 12/2 = 1 mph

How long it takes someone to walk a trail depends on the length of the trail, which you did not provide. The formula is distance = rate*time, so time = distance/rate. You know the rate = 1 mph

If he runs 1/2 a mile in 5 minutes then 60 minutes would be 5x12 and 1/2x12 would be 6 so he can run 6 miles per hour
