The average person walks about 2,000 steps per mile.
However, everyone has a different stride length, so it's best to measure your own. The average stride is probably 2-3 feet long. Since there are 5,280 feet in a mile, you can divide it to figure out the number of steps depending on the length of your stride.
Here's a page to convert feet to miles:

For an average track, the lap length is usually around 1/4 mile. So that means 4 laps would equal 1 mile.
Most outdoor tracks are either 400 meters or 440 yards. If it's 440 yards, then 4 laps is exactly 1 mile. If it's 400 meters, then 4 laps would be slightly less than a mile, since 1 mile = 1609.344 meters.
