Answer:

Sam walked 1.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

Sally walked 12 miles

so,

[tex]SL=12miles[/tex]

Let's assume distance traveled by Sam is SM

Her brother Sam walked 1/10 as much as Sally

so,

[tex]SM=\frac{1}{10}SL[/tex]

now, we can plug value

[tex]SM=\frac{1}{10}\times 12[/tex]

[tex]SM=1.2[/tex]

So,

Sam walked 1.2 miles
