    Answer:

    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

    10000x = 5(1800)

    x = \frac{9000}{10000}

    x = 0.9

    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

    d = \frac{0.9}{\frac{27}{60}} = \frac{60(0.9)}{27} = 2

    The average speed was of 2 miles per hour.
