Answer 1

There are a couple ways to determine the number of minutes it will take Charlie to run 9 laps, but the easist would be to find out what is happening to each number of laps in order to get the number of minutes. In each case, the number of laps is being multiplied by 5 to get the number of minutes.
9x5=45 minutes.

He is running each lap in 5 minutes.
