Each lap around a stadium track is \(\frac14\) mile.  How many laps would a runner have to complete to get a 26-mile workout?

volume_mute

Correct Answer

$104$

Explanation

We divide 26-mile by the length of the track, which is \(\frac14\)

number of laps = \(\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Distance per lap}} = 26 ÷ \frac14 = 104\)
