Answer: The possible numbers of laps he will run today = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]n[/tex] = number of laps he will run today.

Given: Time taken for each lap = 5 minutes

Time taken for [tex]n[/tex] laps =[tex]5n[/tex]  minutes

If he runs at most 45 minutes, then

[tex]5n\leq45[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5 , we get

[tex]n\leq9[/tex]

Hence, the possible numbers of laps he will run today = 9
