Answer:

6.708 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

She walked 3 miles to the right, and 6 miles up. The shortest route she could take back to her starting point is a diagonal, which we can solve for using the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We're solving for c.

9 + 36 = c^2

c^2 = 45

c = 6.708
