What is speed?
The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.
We know that the speed formula
Speed = Distance/Time
Ingrid usually runs 12 miles in 2 hours.
2 hours = 120 minutes
Then the speed will be
Speed = 12 / 120
Speed = 0.1 miles per minutes
If she only has 40 minutes to run today.

Distance = 0.1 x 40
Distance = 4 miles
Then the correct option is C.
