Eugene takes 5/6 minute to run 1 lap around the track. if Eugene runs around their truck at the same pace for 1/4 hour how many laps will Eugene run?

Eugene takes 5/6 minute to run 1 lap around the track.

=> meaning 5/6 minute = 50 seconds

because in 1 minute there are 60 seconds, so they parted this into 6 parts, 10 minutes each

=> 60 / 6 = 6 or 6/6

If he runs around the track at the same phase for ¼ hour. Find the number of laps did Eugene run:

=> ¼ hour = 15 minutes, because in 1 hour they parted it into 4 parts.

=> So, how mnay 50 seconds are there in 15 minutes?

=> 15 minutes x 60 seconds = 900 seconds

=> 900 seconds / 50 seconds = 18

So, Eugene were able to complete 18 laps.
