Answer:
A quarter
of one lap of the track.
Step-by-step explanation:
Three students ran ran a relay and took turns running equal parts of the track.
The race was three-fourths of a lap long.
Let the length of one lap of the track=x
The length of the race
Since each of the students ran equal part,
Length run by each student

Therefore, each student ran a quarter
of one lap of the track.
Step 1: Set up the proportion
4/12 = 10/x
Step 2: Cross multiply to get
120 = 4x
Step 3: Divide all by 4 to get
30 = x
