12 Laps can be done in 48 minutes

Here is a question about rate and proportions

From the question, we have that 1 lap took 4 minutes

Thus, the number of laps we can have in 48 minutes will be the obtained by dividing it by the time it took for one lap

Mathematically, we have this as;


\frac{48\text{ minutes}}{4\text{ minutes/lap}}\text{ = 12 laps}
