Aclass is participating in a walkathon fundraiser each of the 22 students walk 52 laps around the track during the four hours of the fundraisers the students walk the same number of laps each hour how many laps did the 22 students walk altogether in one hour

Hi! Your answer is 13.

All you have to do is divide 52 by 4. When you do this, you will find how many laps they walked per hour.

(They walked 52 laps in 4 hours)

52 / 4 = 13

They walked 13 laps in one hour.

Hope this helped!

where is the figure

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
