Question

Last week, Darnell ran 4 laps around the lake. Russell ran 3/5 as many laps around the lake as Darnell did. How many laps around the lake did Russell run?

Answer 1

Russel ran 12/5 laps, which means 2.4 laps.

Explanation:

To determine how many laps Russel ran, multiply the ones of Darnell by 3/5.

`4*(3)/(5)=(12)/(5)`

Russel ran 12/5 laps, which means 2.4 laps.
