Answer :
There are 5,280 feet in a mile so divided by three gets how many yards: 1760. And 1,716 divided by 4 is 440. So Four (4) laps.
Answer:
Hence, 4 laps would be need to be completed to run a mile.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there are 1760 yards in one mile.
i.e. 1 mile=1760 yards.
As it is given that a typical lap around a track in the United States has a length of 440 yards.
i.e. we are given a number of yards one covers in 1 lap.
That means 440 yards=1 lap
so 1 yard=1/440 lap
⇒ 1760 yard=1760/440 lap
⇒ 1760 yard=4 lap.
Hence, 4 laps would be need to be completed to run a mile.
