Answer:

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2 miles          5 miles

------------     = -------------

12 minutes        x minutes

Using cross products

2 *x = 12*5

2x = 60

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 60/2

x = 30 minutes
I love doing these but the person already did it and is correct
