Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Length of Anne's stride = x

Length of Phillips stride = x + 4

Number of steps taken to walk same distance :

Anne = 6 steps ; Philips = 5 steps

Distance moved = Length of stride * number of strides

Hence,

For same distance :

Anne's distance = Phillip's distance

x * 6 = (x + 4) * 5

6x = 5x + 20

6x - 5x = 20

x = 20

Length of Anne's stride = 20
