How long is the pool?
__________
If the pool is an Olympic-size pool, which is 50 m (164 ft) long, you can calculate the number of miles.
39 lengths of a 50m pool 20 lengths of a 25m pool 43 lengths of a 50yard pool 22 lengths of a 25yard pool
17.6 lengths
2500/20 = 125 lengths
1
In a standard 25m pool, that would be 52 lengths. In an olympic-sized 50m pool, 26.
1603036 lengths of a (standard) 25m pool - that's going to take a long time!
Less than one, because one length in an Olympic pool is 50 meters.
72 lengths x 25 meters = 1800 meters = 1.8 kilometers = about 1.12 miles
In a 25 meter pool, 32 In a 50 meter pool, 16
In a short-course pool of 25 meters, it takes 60 pool lengths to swim 1.5 kilometers. In an olympic-sized pool of 50 meters in length, it takes 30 pool lengths to swim 1.5 kilometers. The number of lengths required for a pool of a different size can be calculated easily enough. Simply convert the distance to meters (1.5 km=1500m) and divide it by the length of the pool, in meters.
One statute mile is 5,280 feet. 1 pool-length/35 ft. X 5,280 ft./mile = 151 pool lengths 151, or 75.5 complete "laps" in your pool to swim one mile.
To find out how many lengths of a 20-meter pool are in 4000 meters, divide 4000 by 20. This calculation gives you 200. Therefore, you would need to swim 200 lengths of a 20-meter pool to cover a distance of 4000 meters.
