The correct term is lengths but In a 25 yard pool it would be 240 lengths

β 15y agoEach lap of a standard U.S. swimming pool is 25 yards (most of the world uses a 50 meter pool, including the Olympics).
2100 yards = 84 laps x 25 yards

β 12y agoi believe it is 12-14 laps

β 14y agoIt's about half of a lap.

β 13y ago128 laps, counting one length as one lap.

500 yards is 20 laps
It is: 6000/3 = 2000 yards
none
The answer depends on how long each lap is.
A mile is 1760 yards. A lap of a 25 yard pool is 50 yards. So number of laps = 1760/50 = 35.2
In a 25-yard pool, 40 lengths (or 20 laps) equals 1000 yards.
1 yard = 0.9144 meters 400 yards x 0.9144 meters = 365.76 365.76/25 = 14 laps
2000 yards
If you're using a 25-yard pool, then 400 yards is 16 laps. (400/25=16) Hope this helps! :)

It appears there is a different opinion on this subject. The answer you get all depends on who you ask. There are 1760 yards in a mile. In a 25 yard pool (one length), 50 yards (2 lengths) equals one lap. When you divide 1760 yards by 50 yards that equals 35.2 laps. Some like to round down and insist 35 laps = one mile, but there are others that like to round up and insist 36 laps = one mile. In a 500 yard swim race, a lap is equal to 25 yards. There are 20 laps in the race, or if a lap is considered to be 50 yards as shown above then there would be 10 laps in the race. 1760 yards in a mile divided by 500 yards = 3.52. If you take 3.52 and multiply it by 10 laps that also = 35.2. So, I guess if you want to go that extra lap you could do 36, or compromise and do 35 laps and then one 25 yard length. I would say that is a fair compromise to the question of 1 mile being equal to 35 or 36 laps. If however you are asking about a running track the answer is 4 laps for a standard 400m (440 yard) and 8 laps (220 yards) for a standard indoor trackIt depends on the length of the lap.Modern running laps are 400 meters, and in that case one mile is:(1 mile) * (1609.344 meters / mile) / (400 meters / lap) = 4.02336 laps.
I, being a Water Safety Survival Instructor Trainer, would swim 4.5 laps if it was a timed event. Because 9 lengths are going to be a little less than 8 yards to short. 5 laps giving you 10 lengths will put you swimming 546.81 yards. So that is what this JARHEAD would advise. An Olympic size pool is 50m (54.68 yards) long so 9.14 laps would equal 500yards.
