Question

tyler runs on a track after school sometimes. this graph shows how many laps he ran on different days. if you combine all of the laps on days when tyler ran exactly 4 1/2 laps, how many laps did he run in all? 12 laps 13 1/2 laps 14 laps 14 1/2 laps

Explanation:

Step1: Identify data for 4.5 - lap days

Count the number of 'x's at 4.5 laps on the graph. There are 3 'x's at 4.5 laps.

Step2: Calculate total laps for 4.5 - lap days

Since each 'x' represents one day of running 4.5 laps, and there are 3 such days, we multiply the number of laps per day (4.5) by the number of days (3). So, \(4.5\times3=\frac{9}{2}\times3=\frac{27}{2} = 13.5\) laps.

Answer:

13.5 laps
