Question

sierra wants to run a total of 5 1/2 miles. Each lap around the track is 1/4 mile. How many laps around the track does sierra need to run to complete 5 1/2 miles​

Answer 1

She has to run 22 laps around the track.

Explanation:

It is 22 laps because each mile means 4 laps on the track and 5 miles multiplied by 4 laps it 20 laps to do 5 miles, and then 1/2 mile times two is 2/4 which is 2 laps. 2 plus 20 is 22 laps.
