I'd strongly suggest that you try doing this problem with algebra.  Please choose a letter (such as x) to represent the TOTAL distance to the movie theater.  Then (1/4)x divided by 5.5 minutes is your speed.   Next, divide your distance, x, by your speed to obtain the time required.

@cinaeth :  Regarding your "what is da answer i have done dat but dont get it:"  Please understand that you can ask for help in finding your own answers/solutions, but you may NOT just ask people to give you answers.  Read the Code of Conduct, if you haven't already.   
Also:  common courtesy requires that you stay with your question either until you've found a solution or you inform the other person that you're leaving.  Don't just disappear (as you appear to have done).
