The key to answering this question is considering that:

The distance is the product of speed and time.

In this case, we have:

distance = Speed x time or

d = s x t

And also

Speed = distance/time

s = d/t

We need to convert minutes into hours:

45 minutes * (1 h /60minutes) = 0.75 h

(We already have this value in the question)

Then, the distance is:

d = (3.4 miles/hour) * 0.75 h

d = 2.55 miles.

Therefore

If Kelly ran for 45 minutes, she completed a distance of 2.55 miles at this speed (3.4 miles/hour).
