    S = 3L

    5/3 miles walk on sand

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that one miles walked on sand is equivalent to 3 miles on land and S stands for miles walked in sand and L the miles on land, it means mathematically that

    S = 3L

    That is the distance on sand is equivalent to the product of 3 and the distance covered on land.

    Hence 5 miles on land would be equivalent to

    = 5 miles / 3

    = 5/3 miles on sand
