If 400 calories are burned by jogging 5km, how many calories were burnt in the given week?
- A1890 calories
- B1840 calories
- C1790 calories
- D1740 calories
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
First, find the total distance jogged in the week:
Total Distance=3.5+3+2.5+5+2.5+2+4.5=23km
Given that 5km burns 400 calories, the calories burned per kilometer is:
Calories per km=
5
400
=80 calories/km
Therefore, total calories burned in the week:
Total Calories=23×80=1840 calories
Total Distance=3.5+3+2.5+5+2.5+2+4.5=23km
Given that 5km burns 400 calories, the calories burned per kilometer is:
Calories per km=
5
400
=80 calories/km
Therefore, total calories burned in the week:
Total Calories=23×80=1840 calories
