Answer:

It would take 16.6 hours.

Explanation:

10 mins. x 100 laps = 1,000 mins.

1,000 mins / 60 mins. = 16.6 hours.

I might be wrong on math, so correct me if I am.

Answer:

500 minutes

Explanation:

Ok, so the first thing we want to do is figure out how long it takes to complete one lap.

So if it takes 10 minutes to travel 2 laps lets find out how many minutes for one.

It would be 5 minutes for one lap, if you divide 10 by 2 because of the 2 laps.

Next, you just multiply the 5 minutes by 100 laps:

This gives you 500 minutes.

Hope this helps :)
