To find the total length that Sven swims, we need to multiply the number of laps he swims by the length of each lap. Sven swims 5 laps and each lap is 11 1/3 yards long.
So, the total length he swims is 5 laps * 11 1/3 yards per lap = 55 5/3 yards.
To convert this to a mixed number, we divide the total length by the length of one whole part (3 yards).
55 5/3 yards = 18 whole parts + 5/3 parts = 18 2/3 yards.
Therefore, Sven swims a total length of 18 2/3 yards.
Sven swims 5 laps in a pool 11 1/3 yards long. What total length does he swim? Convert the answer to a mixed number.(1 point)
