Answer 1

Answer:

Total number of people in the line for the dunking machine is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, let us assume the number of people in the line for hoop shoot = 12

So, the number of people in the line for cakewalk

=  One- Third of the number of people in line for Hoop Shoot

= $\frac{1}{3} \times 12 = 4$

Also, the number of people in the line for dunking machine

=  2 x ( The number of people in line for Cakewalk)

=  2  x  4  = 8

Hence, the total number of people in line for the dunking machine is 8.
