Sound travels about 750 miles per hour. If you stand in a canyon and sound a horn, you will hear an echo.
Suppose it takes about 0.5 seconds to hear the echo. How far away is the canyon wall, in feet?
feet
Now let's generalize that result. Suppose it takes n seconds to hear the echo. How far away is the canyon wall, in terms of n?

The sound takes time to go to a point and reflect back to your position.
It means the sound went twice a distance.
=> Suppose it takes about 0.5 seconds to hear the echo, the canyon wall would be [750 x (0.5/3600)]/2 = 0.052 miles
=> Suppose it takes about n seconds to hear the echo, the canyon wall would be [750 x (n/3600)]/2 miles
Hope this helps!
:)
