Answer 1

Answer:

10 minutes and 37.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

0.85 is 51 seconds. I will be using this because it is easier for me.

Multiply 51 • 12 = 612 seconds for 12 laps. Divide 612 ÷ 60 = 10.2. You get 10.2 minutes. This is 10 minutes and 12 seconds for 12 laps.

Divide 51 by 2 to find how long it takes for 1/2 a lap. You will get 25.5 seconds for half a lap.

Add them together: 10 min 12 sec + 25.5 sec = 10 minutes and 37.5 seconds
