Givens.

• The total number of laps is 14.

,

• The total distance is 30.8 miles.

First, divide the total distance by the number of laps.

[tex]\frac{30.8mi}{14}=2.2mi[/tex]

Each lap length is 2.2 miles.

Let's transform it to yards using the conversion factor 1 mile = 1760 yards.

[tex]2.2mi\cdot\frac{1760yd}{1mi}=3872yd[/tex]

Therefore, each lap length is 3872 yards.
