If each lap in a pool is 100 meters long,how many laps equal one mile Round to the nearest tenth.(Hint:1 foot=0.3048 meter) 1 mile = 5280 ft lets do a ratio: 1ft/.3034m = x ft/100m the ft and meters sybols cancel, so 1/.3048 =x/100 so 100/.3038 = x = 329.164 so there are 329.164 ft for every 100 meters to find the number of laps to get to a mile which is 5280, do another ratio 329.164ft/100 m =5280 ft/xm the left side reduces to 3.29164 =5280/x you can compute this and see that 5280/3.29164 = 1604.064 meters 1604.064 meters *1 lap / 100m = 16.04064 laps are required to make a mile

-3c=15 c = __ help plz

LuckyWell [14K]

You would divide negative 3 (-3) from both sides to keep the c by itself. When you divide a positive by a negative it becomes negative.

Dividing 15 by -3 would equal -5, so c = -5
