Answer:

.25 or 1/4 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

7.2 miles biking x 2 (round trip)= 14.4 miles

Total miles is 16.9-14.4= 2.5 miles left to run 10 times around a small pond. So to find out the distance of each lap around the pool you divide 2.5 miles by 10 laps equals .25 or 1/4 Mike is the distance around the pond.
