30.5 steps per minute
61 steps per minute
61 steps per hour

3,660 steps per hour

Answer 1

I think the answer is 61 steps per minute

Answer 2

61 steps per minute

3,660 steps per hour

Explanation:

To find how many steps she walks in a minute, you have to divide 1830 by 30.

So, 1830/30 = 61

So she takes 61 steps per minute.

She walks 1830 in 30 minutes, and there are 60 minutes in an hour. 30 is also half of 60, so you would multiply 1830 by 2 to find out how many steps she walks in an hour.

So, 1830*2 = 3,660

So she takes 3,660 steps per hour.
