3. 648/6=108
Answer:
648 people could ride the Ferris in 6 hours
The rate is 108 people per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to use proportion to solve this problem.
But first, we need to convert 6 hours to minutes
6 hours = 6 × 60 = 360 minutes
Let x be the number of people that can ride the ferris wheel in 6 hours
45 people = 25 minutes
x = 360 minutes
cross-multiply
25x = 16 200
Divide both-side of the equation by 25
25x/ 25 =16200/25
(On the left-hand side of the equation 25 at the numerator will cancel-out 25 at the denominator leaving us with just x while on the right-hand side of the equation 16 200 will be divided by 25)
x = 648 people
Therefore the number of people that can ride the Ferris in 6 is 648.
The rate per hour is 648/6= 108 people per hour.
108 people in 1 hour.
