Answer:

20 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that distance covered by one step is approximately 2.5 feet long.

⇒ 2.5 feet long = One step

⇒ 1 feet long = [tex]\frac{1}{2.5}[/tex]

∴ 50 feet = [tex]50\times\frac{1}{2.5} = 20 steps [/tex]

Hence, person has to take 20 steps for travelling 50 feet.
