2. Madison is counting her steps. Every 5 minutes, she earns a step bar. If she walked for 1,563 minutes. How many step bars did she earn?

Madison walked for 1,563 minutes, and since she earns a step bar every 5 minutes, we simply divide the total minutes by 5. When we do that, 1,563 divided by 5 equals 312.6, but since she can't earn a fraction of a step bar, we round down, giving her a total of 312 step bars. Way to go, Madison! Just think—if Madison kept up this impressive pace every day, she'd accumulate quite a few step bars by the end of the week. In fact, if she walked the same amount each day for a week, that's 2,196 step bars in just seven days. That’s some serious step credit!
