Question

If Mrs. Cain has a goal to walk 5 miles one day, how many steps will it take to meet her goal? (Remember that for her, 1287 steps= 0.55 mile)

Answer 1

It will take 11,700 steps to reach 5 miles

Explanation:

Since, 1,287 steps = 0.55

`\therefore` To find how many steps per mile, calculate 1,287 ÷ 0.55 which is 2,340 steps per mile.

Then 2,340 × 5 = 11,700 steps taken to achieve 5 miles
