Answer: The possible numbers of laps he will run today = 9

Explanation:

Let
= number of laps he will run today.

Given: Time taken for each lap = 5 minutes

Time taken for
laps =
minutes

If he runs at most 45 minutes, then

$5n\leq45$

Divide both sides by 5 , we get

$n\leq9$

Hence, the possible numbers of laps he will run today = 9
