Yesterday, in 24 hours, Jon walked 4,800 steps. How many steps did he walk in 8 hours?
To find out how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we can divide the total number of steps he walked in 24 hours by 3.
4800 steps / 3 = <<4800/3=1600>>1600 steps
So, Jon walked 1600 steps in 8 hours.
To find out how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we can use the concept of proportions. Since we know that Jon walked 4,800 steps in 24 hours, we can set up a proportion to find the number of steps he walked in 8 hours.
Let's call the number of steps Jon walked in 8 hours "x".
The proportion can be set up as:
4,800 steps / 24 hours = x steps / 8 hours
To solve this proportion, we can cross multiply:
4,800 * 8 = 24 * x
38,400 = 24x
Now, we divide both sides of the equation by 24 to solve for x:
38,400 / 24 = x
x = 1,600
Therefore, Jon walked 1,600 steps in 8 hours.
To find out how many steps Jon walked in 8 hours, we can set up a proportion using the information given.
Let's assume that x is the number of steps Jon walked in 8 hours.
We know that Jon walked 4,800 steps in 24 hours, so we can set up the following proportion:
24 hours / 4800 steps = 8 hours / x steps
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and then divide:
24 * x = 4800 * 8
24x = 38400
x = 38400 / 24
x = 1600
Therefore, Jon walked 1,600 steps in 8 hours.
