Answer:

This probaly sounds a little confusing

Explanation:

1 day = 10 laps

1 lap = 400 meters

1 km = 1000 meters

12 km = ? days

We can use this information to find out a lot that we don't know.

HOW MANY METERS PER DAY??

In order to find the number of meters in a day, we think, "She ran 400 meters 10 times... 400 times 10... that's 4000 meters in one day."

1 day = 4000 meters (10 x 400 meters)

HOW MANY KILOMETERS PER DAY?

In order to find the number of km in a day, we can think, "One thousand is a kilo. There are 4 'one thousand's in 4000. Kali ran 4 kilometers (literally 4 thousand meters) per day.

1 day = 4 km (4000 m / 1000)

From here you can solve simply by thinking "How many 4km does it take to get to 12km?"

4 x ? = 12

? = 12 / 4

? = 3
