Question

A carriage on carnival ride can hold up to 4 people. How many carriages are needed for a group of 22 people to ride?

Answer 1

The answer is A, if four people can fit into 1 carriage, then you'll need 5.5 carriages, but you can't have a half of a carriage so you'll round up to an even 6

Answer 2

Hello!

Let's simply divide our two numbers to find how many carriages we need.

22/4=5.5

The thing is, we cannot have 5.5 carriages. We can just have an extra carriage with only 2 people. This gives us 6 carriages.

Therefore, our answer is A) 6.

I hope this helps!
