To find the answer, we can first find the distance she ran a day by multiplying the track's length(402.5) by the laps (10):

=402.5×10
=4025 meters

We can then proceed to find the total meters by mutiplying the above answer by the days she run(5) :

4025×5
=20125meters

An alternative method:
402.5×5×10
=4025×10
=20125 meters

Therefore,she ran 20125 meters in total.

Hope it helps!
