The question is not specified but probably needs the time Quinn spent exercising. That time is 3 hours and she arrived home at 1pm.

First find the time Quinn spent during the first stage of the exercise. She ran for 3 miles at 6 miles per hour so the time taken was:

Time = Distance / speed

= 3 / 6

= 0.5 hours

She then rested for 1 hour bringing the total to:

= 0.5 + 1

= 1.5 hours

She then walked home at 2 miles per hour. Remember that her home is 3 miles away so the time she took in the last stage is:

= Distance / time

= 3 miles / 2 miles per hour

= 1.5 hours

The total time she took including this last stage is:

= 1.5 + 1.5

= 3 hours

She would have arrived back home at:

= 10 am + 3 hours

= 1 pm

In conclusion, she took 3 hours and arrived at 1 pm for this run.
