Answer: 16 minutes and 40 seconds

Explanation:

1.) Divide 10 minutes by 3 laps in order to find out how long it takes her to run a single lap. (it ends up being 3 minutes and 20 seconds per lap)

2.) Multiply this number by 5, you get 16 minutes and 40 seconds.

NOTE: remember that you’re using intervals of 60 (seconds in a minute) rather than intervals of 100.
