Answer: The ferris wheel could accomodate 900 people in 6 hours. The rate per hour was 150 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
To start off we can find the number of people by deciding how many time slots of 30 minutes are in 6 hours. Since 30 minutes is half an hour we just do 2 times 6 which would give us 12. Since 75 people can fit in 30 minutes then we do 12 times 75 for the whole 6 hours which comes out to 900.
Once we have the number of people in 6 hours then we can find the hourly rate. To do this we just take the number of people (900) in the whole time (6 hours) and divide 6 from 900 which would give us the hourly rate of 150.
When you multiply any two whole numbers with each other and get 125 as the answer, you can say that both the numbers will be the factors of 125. 1× 125 = 125 and 5 × 25 = 125; thus, the factors of 125 are 1, 5, 25, and 125.
