Patra runs around the track at school while training for a race. Each lap is 1414 of a mile. On Wednesday she runs 9 laps.



Patra ran  on Wednesday.

To determine how far Patra ran on Wednesday, you need to multiply the distance of one lap by the number of laps she completed.

Given:
- Each lap is \(\frac{14}{14}\) of a mile (which simplifies to 1 mile).
- She runs 9 laps.

Now, calculate the total distance:

\[
\text{Total distance} = 1 \times 9 = 9 \text{ miles}
\]

So, Patra ran **9 miles** on Wednesday.

Here are five related questions:
1. How would the total distance change if Patra ran fewer laps?
2. What if each lap was a different fraction of a mile?
3. How many laps would Patra need to run to cover a marathon (26.2 miles)?
4. What is the importance of consistent lap measurements in training?
5. How can Patra use her lap data to improve her race performance?

**Tip:** Always simplify fractions when possible to make calculations easier and clearer.
