Suppose that humans walk about 10,000 steps per day on average.
Your average step is probably about 18 inches. If so, how many inches per day do you walk?
How Many feet per day do you walk?
How many miles per day do you walk, to the nearest whole number?
Just take these one at a time.
First, if each step is 18 inches and you take 10,000 of them a day, how many inches will you walk? Just multiply these two numbers and you'll have that answer.
Next, since there are 12 inches in a foot, take the number from the first step and divide by 12 to get the feet/day.
Now, since there are 5280 feet in a mile, divide the number you just got by 5280 and round.
Hope this helps!
To find out how many inches per day you walk, you can multiply the average number of steps per day by the average step length.
Let's calculate it:
Average steps per day: 10,000 steps
Average step length: 18 inches
Inches per day = Average steps per day * Average step length
Inches per day = 10,000 steps * 18 inches
Inches per day = 180,000 inches
To calculate how many feet per day you walk, you need to convert the inches into feet. Since there are 12 inches in a foot, you can divide the inches by 12 to get the feet.
Feet per day = Inches per day / 12
Feet per day = 180,000 inches / 12
Feet per day = 15,000 feet
Lastly, to determine how many miles per day you walk, you need to convert the feet into miles. There are 5,280 feet in a mile. Divide the feet by 5,280 to get the miles.
Miles per day = Feet per day / 5,280
Miles per day = 15,000 feet / 5,280
Miles per day ≈ 2.84 miles (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Therefore, you walk approximately 180,000 inches per day, 15,000 feet per day, and 2.84 miles per day (rounded to the nearest whole number).
