Answer 1

The correct option is D 2239

Total steps walked in 4 days = 8956
Number of steps walked per day = 8956 ÷ 4
i.e.

$$\begin{array}{c}2239\\ 48956\\ -\underset{–}{8}2\\ 09\\ -\underset{–}{08}\\ 15\\ -\underset{–}{12}\\ 36\\ -\underset{–}{36}\\ 00\end{array}$$
So, Ellie and Debora walked 2239 steps per day.
