We can make a fraction to find out how many minutes for 1 lap. Let’s use the first ratio: 2/10 We can simplify that to: 1/5 So one lap for every 5 minutes, then we can multiply that for 7 laps: 5•7=35 So 35 minutes. The answer is A

It would take him 35 minutes bro! Why? Because it’s in between the 40 and 30 from 6-8 laps. The answer is A
