Answer:

The ball will travel 60 complete circles in two minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

a ball travels a complete circle in 2 seconds.

We want to find the number of circles it will travel in two minutes;


2\text{minutes =2}*60\text{ seconds=120 seconds}

So;


\begin{gathered} 2\text{ seconds}\rightarrow\text{ 1 circle} \\ 1\text{ seconds}\rightarrow(1)/(2)\text{ circle} \\ 120\text{ seconds}\rightarrow(1)/(2)*120\text{ circles =60 circles} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the ball will travel 60 complete circles in two minutes.
