Given low ambient noise, what is an average hearing distance? How far away would a person with normal hearing be able to clearly hear and understand a conversation held with normal voices between two people? At what distance would the conversation become hard or impossible to understand/hear?

Evidently I should clarify. I know that there's a lot of variables, but I'm interested in a rough estimate. Please assume that there is little to no wind, that ambient noise is low enough not to matter much, and that the sound is a conversation at normal room-level voices.
Perhaps this isn't a question with an answer. That would be a shame.
