    The track has a circumference of 400 m. This is the distance traveled per lap.

    Because the person made 8 laps, the total distance traveled is

    8 * 400 = 3200 m

    The time taken for the 8 laps is 14.0 min = 14*60 = 840 s.

    The average velocity

    = distance/time

    = (3200 m) / (840 s)

    = 3.8095 m/s

    Answer: 3.8 m/s (nearest tenth)
