Answer:

David took 32 more steps

Explanation:

first we need to find out how many steps each person takes every one mile to find that out we divide the steps by how many miles .

megan: 9780÷5= 1956 steps in one mile

David: 11928÷6= 1988 steps in one mile

then you subtract to find by how many more steps .

1988-1956 =32

david took 32 more steps
