It is 3.67 miles to your grandparents' home. if your average stride length is 2.6 feet, how many strides will it take you to walkk to your grandparents' home? hint : you will need two conversion factors
We need to figure out how many feet are in 3.67 miles. First we can use the fact that one mile is 1760 yards.
distance = (3.67 miles) (1760 yards/mile)
distance = 6459.2 yards
We can convert the distance to feet using the fact that there are 3 feet in one yard.
distance = (6459.2 yards) (3 feet/yard)
distance = 19377.6 feet
We can figure out how many strides it will to walk the distance.
strides = (19377.6 feet) / (2.6 feet/stride)
strides = 7453 strides
It will take 7453 strides to reach your grandparents' home.
