Answer:

12 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Susan will walk a lap in 4 minutes

Daphne will do it in 6 minutes

We would need to find the Lowest Common Multiple for the minutes each of them will take, and it would be a number that both numbers (4 and 6) will get as a result of multiplying them by another number.
