Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the oval track, one lap is 1/4 of a mile. If p laps are completed, the expression that represents the total distance run based on the number of laps is

p × 1/4 = p/4 miles

With the above expression, we would determine the number of miles run buy a team member if we are given the number of laps by just inputting the number of laps for p. Therefore,

if a member of the track team completes 22 laps, the total distance covered by the member would be

22 × 1/4 = 5.5 miles
