As you have indicated, the tortoise moves 0.2mph, which is equal to one fifth of a mile in one hour. One mile will be traveled by the tortoise in five hours. Half a day is 12 hours, so 0.2 x 12 = 2.4 miles.

A tortoise, traveling at 0.2 mph would travel 2.4 miles in half a day.

0.2 mph means it moves 0.2 (or one fifth) of a mile every hour. So in five hours it moves one mile (wow, pretty fast, eh?).

Are there 12 hours in half a day? Then multiply 0.2 by 12 to get the number of miles.
