We are given the following information
The total distance Edwin covered is
[tex]5\frac{1}{3}=\frac{16}{3}\text{miles}[/tex]
The length of each lap is
[tex]\frac{2}{3}\text{miles}[/tex]
To get the number of laps he covered, we will divide the total distance by the length of each lap
[tex]\frac{16}{3}\div\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Simplifying, we will have
[tex]\frac{16}{3}\times\frac{3}{2}=\frac{48}{6}=8\text{ laps}[/tex]
Thus, Edwin covered 8 laps
