To determine how many laps will be completed in 9 minutes if 32 laps are completed in 4 minutes, we first find the rate of laps per minute.
1. Calculate the rate of laps per minute:
\[
\text{Rate} = \frac{32 \text{ laps}}{4 \text{ minutes}} = 8 \text{ laps per minute}
\]
2. Now, use this rate to find out how many laps can be completed in 9 minutes:
\[
\text{Laps in 9 minutes} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time} = 8 \text{ laps/minute} \times 9 \text{ minutes} = 72 \text{ laps}
\]
Therefore, a total of **72 laps** will be completed in 9 minutes.
