Dawn raises money for her school in a jog-a-thon. She will get three dollars for every lap she completes. If it takes 4 laps to jog 1 mile, and Dawn jogs a total of 11 miles, how much money will Dawn raise for her school?

If Dawn gets 3$ for every lap she completes and 1 mile is 4 laps, and it says she runs 11 miles you would do 4 multiplied by 3, which is 12, once you get that answer you would multiply 12 by 11 and your answer would be: 132$
To check your answer you could do 4x11 which is 44 and you could multiply that by 3 which will also get you: 132$
