1. Write and solve the hidden question(s)

the original question.
8 laps equal a mile

Respuesta :

Ariel swam 13 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Laps swam by Mackenzie = 28 laps

Laps swam by June = 3 times as many as Mackenzie = 3(28) = 84 laps

Laps swam by Ariel = 20 more than June = 84+20 = 104 laps

It is given that,

8 laps = 1 mile

1 lap = [tex]\frac{1}{8}\ mile[/tex]

We can determine the number of miles of Ariel by multiplying total laps by Ariel to unit rate of laps in terms of mile.

104 laps = [tex]\frac{1}{8}*104[/tex]

104 laps = 13 miles

Ariel swam 13 miles.
