8.5 km to steps

8.5 km is how many steps?

Answer: 8.5 km are approximately equal to 10,897 steps

(for Average Man with a stride length of 0.78 meters)

12,143 steps

(for Average Woman with a stride length of 0.70 meters)

Explanation of converting 8.5 km to steps

Converting 8.5 kilometers to steps involves using an average stride length for both men and women, as stride lengths can vary significantly from person to person. However, for the sake of calculation, we can use average values:

The average stride length for a man is approximately 0.78 meters (78 centimeters).

The average stride length for a woman is approximately 0.7 meters (70 centimeters).

Steps for Conversion

1. Convert kilometers to meters: Since 1 kilometer equals 1000 meters, first convert the distance from kilometers to meters.

Distance in meters = 8.5 km × 1000 = 8500 meters

2. Calculate the number of steps: Divide the total distance in meters by the average stride length in meters to find the number of steps.

Number of steps = Distance in meters / Average stride length in meters

8500 meters ÷ 0.78 meters/step = 10,897 steps for a man

8500 meters ÷ 0.70 meters/step = 12,143 steps for a woman

Therefore, for a man, walking 8.5 km would be approximately 10,897 steps, and for a woman, it would be approximately 12,143 steps, given the average stride lengths used in these calculations. Adjustments can be made for individuals with stride lengths that differ from these averages to get a more accurate step count.
