Yesterday, in 24 hours, Jon walked 4,800 steps. How many steps did he walk in 8 hours?
A .04 steps per 8 hours
B 4000 steps per 8 hours
C 16 steps per 8 hours
D 1600 steps per 8 hours
To find how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we divide the total number of steps by the number of hours: 4,800 steps / 24 hours = <<4800/24=200>>200 steps per hour.
Then we multiply the number of steps per hour by 8 to find the number of steps in 8 hours: 200 steps per hour * 8 hours = <<200*8=1600>>1600 steps
The answer is D, 1600 steps per 8 hours.
To calculate how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we need to find the number of steps he walks per hour and then multiply it by 8.
Given that Jon walked 4,800 steps in 24 hours, we can find the number of steps he walks per hour by dividing 4,800 by 24.
4800 steps ÷ 24 hours = 200 steps per hour
Now that we know Jon walks 200 steps per hour, we can calculate how many steps he would walk in 8 hours by multiplying this rate by 8.
200 steps/hour × 8 hours = 1600 steps
Therefore, Jon walked 1600 steps in 8 hours.
So, the correct answer is option D: 1600 steps per 8 hours.
To find out how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we can use a proportional relationship.
We know that in 24 hours, Jon walked 4,800 steps. So, in 1 hour, he would walk 4,800 steps divided by 24 hours, which is 200 steps per hour.
To find out how many steps he walked in 8 hours, we multiply the steps per hour by the number of hours:
8 hours * 200 steps per hour = 1600 steps.
Therefore, Jon walked 1600 steps in 8 hours.
The correct answer is D) 1600 steps per 8 hours.
