If he hikes 6 miles in 2 hours, his speed is...

6/2 miles/hr
6/2 reduces to 3/1 so he is traveling 3 miles/hr.

To find how far he goes in 9 hours, multiply speed × time...

9 hours × 3 miles/hour =

27 miles

The correct answer is not listed among the choices.

The rate is      (6 mi) / (2 hr)  =  3 mi/hr.

9 hours at this same rate:  (3 mi/hr) x (9 hr)  =  27 miles .
