Answer by Leaf W.(135) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
To determine how many minutes it will take to complete one lap, you want to find the the average time it takes the cyclist to complete one lap -- his average number of minutes/lap. Thus, you can simply divide the number of total minutes he biked by the number of laps he did in that time:
Therefore, it will take him 0.6 minutes, or 36 seconds (since 0.6 minutes * 60 minutes/second = 36 seconds) to complete a lap.
