Answer:
Wendy needs to run 24 laps around the track.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're given:
- Wendy wants to run 3 miles
- School track = 1/8 miles per lap
Let x be equal to the number of laps that Wendy has to run.
If she wants to run 3 miles, then she wants to run x laps around the track:
1/8x = 3
Divide both sides by 1/8:
x = 8 * 3
x = 24
Therefore, Wendy needs to run 24 laps around the track.
I hope this helps!
