If you can walk a certain distance is a certain amount of time, how far can you walk in twice that amount of time? For example, if I can walk 6 feet in one second, I should be able to walk 12 feet in two seconds, right? So, if 3 hours is two times 1.5 hours, and I can go 2.4 miles in 1.5 hours, how far can I go in two times that long?
