Answer:
8.8 laps([tex]\approx 9 \ laps[/tex])
Step-by-step explanation:
-Given the field's total perimeter as 300 yards.
#First we convert the yards into miles(1 yd=0.000568182)
[tex]p=300\times0.000568182\\\\=0.170455 \ mile[/tex]
Given that a player must run for 1.5 miles and that the field's perimeter is 0.170455, we divide this distance by the total distance to be run to obtain the number of laps:
[tex]laps=\frac{Total \ Distance}{Field's Perimeter}\\\\=\frac[1.5}{0.170455}\\\\=8.8\ laps[/tex]
Hence, the player must run 8.8 laps
