Question

A $6 prize was offered at the end

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that there were 3 winners at the end of the second hour.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

After the first hour, 2 people were tied and split the prize, hence they received $6/2 = $3.

After the second hour, the winners received $2, hence the number of winners is given by:

n = $6/$2 = 3.
