Aisha has a pet golden retriever named Lucky. She walks Lucky every night. Yesterday, Aisha and Lucky took a 45-minute walk and walked 3 miles. Today, Aisha plans to walk Lucky for only 30 minutes.

Question

If they keep the same pace, how many miles will Aisha and Lucky walk today?
miles

Answer 1

If Aisha and Lucky walked for 45 minutes and covered 3 miles, their pace is 3 miles/45 minutes=<<3/45=0.067>>0.067 miles/minute.
If they plan to walk for 30 minutes today, they will cover 0.067 miles/minute*30 minutes= 2.01 miles. Answer: \boxed{2.01}.
