Answer:

2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance from home to store and back = 1/2 mile

In a week :

Number of times he walked from home to store and back = 1 time

Number of times she rode to store and back = 3 time

Note distance does not change whether she rode or walked:

Hence,

miles walked = 1/2 miles * 1 = 1/2 miles

Miles biked = 1/2 miles * 3 = 3/2 miles

Total Number of miles :

(1/2 + 3/2) = (1 + 3) /2 = 4/2 = 2 miles
