A mile is equivalent to 1760 yards. In a 25-yard pool, you would need to swim 70.4 laps to complete a mile (1760 yards ÷ 25 yards = 70.4 laps).
To swim 600 yards, you would need to swim 12 laps in a standard 25-yard pool. This is because 600 divided by 25 equals 24, but you only need to swim 23 laps to reach 575 yards. To reach the full 600 yards, you would need to swim one more lap, totaling 12 laps.
1 mile = 1609 metres2.4 miles = 3861 metres1 length of a standard swimming pool = 25 metres, so 3861/25= 154.4 so if you swim 155 lengths then you have swum the full distance.
Okay...i know that when i go to swim practice, i swim for a good hour and a half. i know that while im there(swimming constantly)i burn about 1200 calories. So, it doesnt matter how many laps you swim; its how long and how intense. Your very welcome, Grace Kelly Katz5..... well if you want laps, you would have to swim 10-12 laps; there and back counting as one lap. So if you did that you would burn 500 calories, and if you were in a 25 meter pool you would have to swim about 20 laps; there and back counting as one.
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.
5280 feet in a mile divided by 3 for yards = 1760 yards in a mile1760 yards in a mile divided by 25 yard pool length = 70.40 laps The above is not correct. While the math is correct, that is not the accepted swimming conversion. A lap is 50 yards; therefore, in a 25 yd pool, a lap is down and back. Also, it is commonly accepted that a swimming mile is 1650 yards. This means that a swimming mile is 33 laps (or 66 lengths). ** Some say that a mile is 32 laps (or 64 lengths).It takes 70.4 (round up to 71) laps in a 25 yard pool to swim a mileto figure this out: the number of yards in a mile = 1760 divide by 25 = 70.4Just note that a LAP is down and back, which is 50 yards. 1760 divide 25 yards is 70.4 LENGTHS, not laps. It is approximately 36 laps in a 25 yard pool to swim a mile.Another note, in a 25 meter pool it would take 32 laps (or 64 lengths) to swim a mile: the number of meters in a mile = 1600 divided by 50 = 32

There is not a way to answer this question. You will have to tell me the rate he was going.

If 1 lap is going from Point A to B and back to A (a total of 50yds), then 1.2 mi is 42.24 laps.
25 meter long. Unless you are asking about time becuase if you are talking about time then it depends on what level you swim at. If you dogie paddle it will take much longer than if you used a freestyle stroke
An average human swims at 2 miles per hour, which converts to 3520 yards per hour. So unless you swim really, really slowly, it should take much less than one hour to swim 50 yards. In fact it should take a little less than one minute at average speed.
