Answer:

The correct answer would be - 9.75 laps (if runs 12 laps in 8 days) or 78 laps (if 12 laps each day for 8 days)

Explanation:

Given:

a) Laps covered in 8 days = 12

interval = 1 and half day

total laps = ?

Solution:

To know the total laps with intervals we need to calculate the laps run each day :

= 12/8 laps per day

= 3/2 laps per day

Now multiply the daily run with days

= (3/2)*6.5 (due to 8 - 1.5 = 6,5 days)

= 9.75 laps

B) Given:

Laps covered in 8 days = 12*8 =96

interval = 1 and half day

total laps = ?

Solution:

To know the total laps with intervals we need to calculate the laps run each day :

= 96/8 laps per day

= 12laps per day

Now multiply the daily run with days

= 12*6.5 (due to 8 - 1.5 = 6,5 days)

= 78 laps
