Answer:

4.7 miles

Explanation:

Steps/day=10,000

Average step length=30 inches

Total distance covered by Janet/day=10,000steps × 30 inches

=300,000 inches

1 inch = 0.000015782828 miles

300,000 inches=0.000015782828 × 300,000 miles

4.7348484 miles

Aprroximately

4.7 miles

If Janet walks 10,000 steps in a day which is equivalent to 300,000 inches, she would walk an approximate value of 4.7 miles

Answer:

4,7 miles

Explanation:

The average step length is 30 inches. If she walks 10,000 steps in a day, the distance that she will walk, in inches, is:

10,000 step × (30 in/1 step) = 300,000 in

1 mile is equivalent to 63,360 inches. The miles corresponding to 300,000 inches are:

300,000 in × (1 mi/63,360 in) = 4,7 mi
