Mrs. Cain's Fitbit said that her 1,287 steps equaled 0.55 mile. If she makes her goal of 8,500 steps, how many miles will she walk? (Round to the nearest hundredth.)

Answer:

3.66 miles by 8,500 steps walked

Explanation:

Since 1,287 steps equal to 0.55 miles


\therefore 0.55 ÷ 1,287 equal to mile gone by 1 step, which is 0.00043

Then, 0.00043 × 8,500 = 3.655 ≈ 3.66 miles
