Answer:

  24 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Time is proportional to distance at constant speed, so it will take 18/45 = 2/5 of an hour. That's 2/5 of 60 minutes, or 24 minutes.

__

The time required is ...

  time = distance / speed

  time = (18 mi)/((45 mi)/(60 min)) = (18×60/45) min =  24 min

It would take 24 minutes.
