Answer:
the time taken to complete two whole number and a half laps is
1 ²/₃ min
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
time taken to complete 1 lap, = 2/3 minutes
The time taken to complete 2 and 1/2 laps is calculated as follows;
[tex]Time \ taken= \frac{2}{3 } \frac{\min}{lap} \ \times \ 2\frac{1}{2} laps\\\\Time \ taken = \frac{2}{3} \frac{\min}{lap} \ \times \ \frac{5 }{2} laps= \frac{5 }{3} \min = 1\frac{2}{3} \min[/tex]
Therefore, the time taken to complete two whole number and a half laps is
1 ²/₃ min
