During a Team scavenger hunt event, the average number of steps taken was 1800. Calculate the distance traveled using 10,000 steps = 5 miles. Using a time of 27 minutes to complete the event, calculate your average speed.

The average speed was of 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed:

Average speed is distance divided by time.

Distance:

Solved by proportions, using rule of three.

1800 steps - x miles

10,000 steps - 5 miles

Distance of 0.9 miles.

Using a time of 27 minutes to complete the event, calculate your average speed.

Distance of 0.9 miles in 27/60 of an hour. So

The average speed was of 2 miles per hour.
