Let's use Cross-multiplication:

2mi ------------------------>15min

x mi------------------------->45min

So:

2/x = 15/45

Solving for x:

Multiply both sides by x:

x*(2/x) = x* 15/45

2 = 15x/45

Multiply both sides by 45:

45*2 = 45*(15x/45)

90 = 15x

Divide both sides by 15:

90/15 = 15x/15

6 = x

x = 6mi
