Q. Type the missing number to complete the proportion.\newline2020 laps in 22 days = 1010 laps in ____\_\_\_\_ days
  1. Identify proportion: Identify the proportion given and what is asked. 2020 laps in 22 days =10= 10 laps in xx days. Here, we need to find xx, the number of days to swim 1010 laps.
  2. Set up proportion: Set up the proportion to solve for x.\newlineUsing the proportion, 20 laps2 days=10 lapsx days \frac{20 \text{ laps}}{2 \text{ days}} = \frac{10 \text{ laps}}{x \text{ days}} .\newlineCross multiply to solve for x: 20x=2×10 20x = 2 \times 10 .
  3. Solve for x: Solve for x.\newline20x=20 20x = 20 .\newlineDivide both sides by 2020: x=1 x = 1 .
