Remember this equation: R(rate)*T(Time)=D(distance)
Her rate is unknows, her time is 60 minutes, and the distance is 5 miles (counting from and back). So the equation is:
R*60=5
Divide be 60 to get
R=5/60 She traveled at 5 miles per hour(60 minutes)

if she ran back and forth, then she ran 5 miles (2.5+2.5=5)
If you take mph and do the miles/hour, then she ran 5mph.
Very simple!
Good luck!
