It would be 6 miles per hour.

mph is a unit for speed. And the formula for speed is s=distance /time

So the distance is 2 miles
And the time is 20 minutes

*for this question you need to convert the minutes to hours to get the right units

20mins =0.3 hours (approx) [20/60 to get it in hours]

2 miles/0.3 hours ≈ 6 mph
