Answer:

3 days

Explanation:

First, let's convert 400 meters to km (kilometers):

To find km from m we divide the meters by 1000:

400/1000 = 0.4

Therefore, there are 0.4 km in 1 meter.

Kali runs 10 laps every day, since 1 lap is 0.4 km we can multiply 10 by 0.4 to see how many kilometers they run in 1 day:

(10)(0.4) = 4

Kali runs 4 kilometers every day

Now, we can find how long it will take Kali to run a total of 12 kilometers by dividing 12 by 4

12/4 = 3

It will take Kali 3 days to run a total of 12 kilometers.

I hope this helps!!
