Answer 1

3600

Explanation:

I took the test online in K12 and when I reviewed it said that 3600 is the correct answer.

Answer 2

To know the steps Olivia took before lunch, you can directly multiply the percentage to the whole.

step before lunch = 45% × 8,000
step before lunch = 0.45 × 8,000
step before lunch = 3,600

Olivia took 3,600 steps before lunch
