B. The distance in york canal is 1/3 the distance traveled in the other lake.

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information is :

Madeline takes her family on a boat ride. She drives 6 miles in 10 minutes through York canal.

Later Madeline crosses another lake, and drives 30 minutes at the same average speed.

So, we know that the speed is same but distance is different.

Now, in 10 minutes Madeline travels 6 miles so, in 30 minutes she will have traveled [tex]\frac{6}{10}*30[/tex] =18 miles.

Or we can say that distance in York canal is one third the distance of other canal means [tex]\frac{1}{3}*18=6[/tex] miles.

Therefore, option B is correct.
