Narrative:
This was an IFR training flight for me to lax with my instructor because it was an opportunity for IFR training and I did not want to fly into lax by myself as I had never flown into lax. Upon landing I contacted ground after leaving the runway and we were given a series of directions to the FBO. We had wanted to go to XXX FBO and asked if we should go to ZZZ FBO since it was closer. I was taxiing and my CFI was reading the airport diagram. We believed we were following the txwys as instructed, txwys east, south, C, T. At taxiway T we turned left and crossed taxiway B and we were confused as to the location of the ZZZ FBO, we paused at runway 25R looking down the runway and we assumed that we were ok to cross and continued across runways 25R and 25L on taxiway T. We proceeded left onto taxiway a and I asked the ground controller for directions as I believed I was in the wrong place. He verified that we had crossed runways 25R and 25L and gave us a telephone number to call and directed us to XXX FBO. I should have asked the ground controller if we were indeed cleared to cross the runways before crossing.
