Answer:

1.6 miles


Step-by-step explanation:

If Amy can ride 4 miles in 30 minutes, to get her distance in 1 minute, we need to divide 4 miles by 30:

[tex]\frac{4}{30}=\frac{2}{15}[/tex] miles per minute


Hence, in 12 minutes, she can ride 12 times that:

[tex]\frac{2}{15}*12=\frac{8}{5}=1.6[/tex] miles
