Answer 1

Answer:

Tanya's average speed was $\frac{1}{2}$ laps per minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tanya walked 15 laps on an indoor track in 30 minutes.

Therefore, the average speed of Tanya is $\frac{15}{30} = \frac{1}{2}$ laps per minutes.

Calculation:

The average speed formula is given by $V = \frac{\textrm {Distance covered}}{\textrm {Number of munutes spent}}$

The distance is 15 laps.

The time is 30 minutes.

Therefore, $V = \frac{15}{30}$ laps per minute.

After simplification, $V = \frac{1}{2}$ laps per mins.

Therefore, Tanya's average speed was $\frac{1}{2}$ laps per minute. (Answer)
