    It will take 44 practices for Scott to have sprinted a total of 2 miles combined

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This question can be solved using rules of three.

    First step:

    Scott practice is measured in yards.

    We want to know how many practices it will take for him to have sprinted 2 miles.

    So we pass 2 miles to yards

    Each mile has 1760 yards.

    So 2 miles is 1760*2 = 3520 yards.

    A practice:

    4 sprints of 20 yards each.

    So 4*20 = 80 yards.

    A practice is 80 yards. How many practices for 3520 yards?

    1 practice - 80 yards

    x practices - 3520 yards

    80x = 3520

    x = 3520/80

    x = 44

    It will take 44 practices for Scott to have sprinted a total of 2 miles combined
