Solution

To solve this problem, we need to convert the distance on the map to the actual distance.

Step 1: We know that 1 inch on the map represents 3 miles.

Step 2: We are given that the starting and stopping points of Amir's run are 0.5 inch apart on the map.

Step 3: To find out the actual distance, we multiply the distance on the map (0.5 inch) by the scale of the map (3 miles per inch).

So, 0.5 inch * 3 miles/inch = 1.5 miles.

Therefore, Amir ran 1.5 miles.
