Question

The track at the high school is 1 1/4 mile around . If the coach wants his track team to run 5 miles, How many time will they need to run around the track

Answer 1

The track is 1 1/4 mile.

So to run 5 miles,

$5\times1\frac{1}{4}=5\times\frac{5}{4}=\frac{25}{4}=6.25$

So approximately 7 rounds.
