Question

Daniel runs laps every day at the community track. He ran 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks. In that time, he ran 1,800 laps. What was his average rate in laps per hour?

Answer 1

1800 laps in 12 weeks

1800/12 = 150 laps in 1 week

150/5 = 30 laps a day

30 laps in 45 minutes

x laps in 60 minutes

x = (30*60)/45 = 40 laps per hour
