Assume, Steve walks at a constant pace, he will be in his house after 5 hours

Given the Parameters :

  • Distance from home = 15 miles
  • Distance after 1 hour = 12 miles

The distance walked in 1 hour = 15 miles - 12 miles = 3 miles

Recall :

  • Speed = Distance / time

Steve's speed = 3 miles ÷ 1 hour = 3mi/hr

Time taken to reach his destination :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time = (15 ÷ 3) = 5 hours

Therefore, It will take Steve 5 hours to reach his destination.
