Answer:
10 hours
Explanation:
Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.
hours/laps=hours/laps
We know that it takes him 2 hours to run 12 laps. We don't know how long it will take him to run 60 laps, so we can say it takes x hours to run 60 laps.
2 hours/12 laps=x hours/60 laps
2/12=x/60
We want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.
x is being divided by 60. The opposite of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 60.
60*2/12=x/60*60
60*2/12=x
10=x
It will take Lebron 10 hours to run 60 laps.
