Question

Laura takes 80 steps to walk across her local park.

Laura's steps are 70 centimetres long.
Her sister Kara's steps are 80 centimetres long.
How many steps does Kara take to walk across
the park?

a. 45
b.56
c.70
d.80

Answer 1

70 because they both multiply to the same amount

Answer 2

c. 70

Explanation:

Laura’s steps are 70cm, and she takes 80 steps, which would give her a total length of 5600cm. Kara’s steps are 80cm, so we have to divide 5600cm by 80cm. This means Kara takes 70 steps to walk across the park.
