Question

Rates 13 feet in 5 steps

Answer 1

`2.6(feet)/(step)` or 2.6 ft/step

Explanation:

In order to find the average number of feet traveled per step, divide the total number of feet traveled by the total number of steps taken:

`(13 feet)/(5 steps)=(13)/(5)(feet)/(step)=2.6(feet)/(step)`

Therefore, for each step taken 2.6 feet are traveled (on average). We can say this as 2.6 feet per step or 2.6 ft/step.
