To answer this question you would consider that 10 feet equals 120 inches. If you show the 120 inches being broken into groups the size of 8 inches, this would be 15 total steps needed at the most. If the steps were any longer, the number of steps would decrease. I would represent all the possible solutions by writing an inequality that says 120/8 > x or x < 120/8 where x is the number of steps.
