Answer 1

Please consider the complete question.

Peyton has a goal to walk 10,000 steps each day. On Tuesday afternoon, Peyton walked  7,338 steps. She averages 2.5 feet per step.

How many more feet does Peyton need to walk to reach her goal of 10,000 steps?

First of all we will find the steps Peyton needs to walk to reach her goal.

$\text{Steps Peyton needs to walk}=10000-7338$

$\text{Steps Peyton needs to walk}=2662$

Since Peyton averages 2.5 feet per step, so to find number of feet in 2662 steps, we will multiply 2662 by 2.5 as:

$\text{Distance that Peyton needs to walk to reach her goal}=2662\times 2.5\text{ ft}$

$\text{Distance that Peyton needs to walk to reach her goal}=6655\text{ ft}$

Therefore, Peyton needs to walk 6655 feet to reach her goal.
