Question

Flo sets a goal of walking 12,000 total steps per day. flo's normal routine involves walking 6,000 steps per day. if flo walks 100 steps per minute, how many extra minutes should she walk per day beyond her normal routine?

Answer 1

Flo should walk 60 extra minutes of time per day to accomplish her goal of walking 12,000 total steps per day.

Calculating the Time for Which Flo Walks Each Day

Flo walks 6,000 steps per day.

She walks 100 steps per minute.

⇒ Time taken by Flo to cover 6,000 steps = $\frac{6000}{100}$ minutes

⇒ Time taken by Flo to cover 6,000 steps, m₁ = 60 minutes

Hence, Flo walks for 60 minutes or 1 hour per day.

Calculating the Extra Hours of Walking

Steps to be covered by Flo each day = 12,000

Time required to walk 12,000 steps per day, m₂ = $\frac{12000}{100}$ minutes

⇒ m₂ = 120 minutes

Extra hours of walk per day = (m₂-m₁) minutes

= (120 - 60) minutes

= 60 minutes

Thus, Flow should walk 1 hour extra to be able to accomplish a goal of walking 12,00 steps per day.
