Answer:

7.5 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you wanna figure out how many yards is in one lap

to do this, you would multiply 100 and 4 (four because there's four equal sides  in one lap)

100 x 4 = 400

You know their speed is 5 yards per second, so you wanna find out how many seconds they will be running

to do this, you multiply 60 (sixty because there's sixty seconds in one minute) and 10 (ten because that's the given amount of minutes)

60 x 10 = 600 seconds

now to found out how much they will run in 10 minutes you will multiply 600 by 5

600 x 5 = 3000 yards

now to find how many laps this is, you can divide 3000 yards by 400 yards

3000 ÷ 400 = 7.5 laps
