Question

On average, an adult female’s average walking stride length is 2.2 feet and an adult male’s average walking stride length is 2.5 feet. How many walking strides would you make in a 5k race?

Answer 1

For male candidate

1 feet =30.48cm

2.5 feet =76.2 cm

Length of race = 5km=5000m=500,000 cm

No of steps = 500,000/76.2 =6561.7 as no of steps cant be in fraction so number of steps would be 6562

For female candidate

1 feet =30.48cm

2.2 feet =67.056 cm

Length of race = 5km=5000m=500,000 cm

No of steps = 500,000/67.056 =7456.5 as no of steps cant be in fraction so number of steps would be 7457 .
