Her rate of speed is 2 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Given,

In
(5)/(12) hours she walks
(5)/(6) miles.

To find the rate of speed.

We need to find out the speed in 1 hour.

We will apply unitary method.

In
(5)/(12) hours she walks
(5)/(6) miles.

In 1 hour she walks
(5)/(6) ÷
(5)/(12) miles.

=
(5)/(6) ×
(5)/(12) miles

= 2 miles

Hence,

Her rate of speed is 2 miles per hour.
