Step 1; Sylvia runs for a total of 2000 meters. Each lap is 200 meters long. To find the number of laps remaining we need to know the total distance, the distance already covered and the distance on each lap. The distance left to run is equal to the total distance to be run - the distance already ran = 2000 - 1800 meters = 200 meters.
Step 2;The number of laps remaining = The distance left to run/distance on each lap.
The number Number of laps remaining = 200 meters/200 meters
