25

Explanation:

Answer 2

25 minutes

Explanation:

From the table,

2 laps takes time 10 min.

4 laps takes time 20 min.

6 laps takes time 30 min.

8 laps takes time 40 min.

10 laps takes time 50 min.

So, we can deduce the relation between the number of laps and time

the time over the number of laps at each row = 5

Which mean 1 lap takes 5 minutes

Therefore, to run 5 laps, it takes = 5 * 5 = 25 minutes
