Answer:

24 laps

Explanation:

  • We know that the the number of laps of proportional to the time.
  • This means that any change to performed to the laps must be performed to the time and vice versa.

Since 6 is 3 * 2, we can determine how many laps the baseball team can run in 6 minutes by multiplying 12 by 2:

Number of laps = 12 * 2

Number of laps = 24

Thus, the baseball team can run 24 laps in 6 minutes.
