Rudy Walls · Answer 1

30 laps per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you do is calculate the amount of hours he swam for. Since he swam 2 hours each day, 5 days each week, for 5 weeks we use the equation 2*5*5. The answer is 50. After that what we do is take the amount of laps and divide it by 50. We do 1500 divided by 50 and we get a total of 30 laps per hour.
