Answer:
140 people
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>basically since 30 minutes is half of an hour, to get to a full hour you can multiply by 2, so you do that for both, 2/3 included so you get 2/3 * 2/1 4/3 is 1 1/3</span>
I hope this helps. If I need to know explain further let me know.
In the question, it is already given that the total number of runners in the race is 60 and out of them 1/3 dropped out in the first half. In the second half 1/4 of the remaining runners dropped out.
Now
Total number of runners in the race = 60
Number of runners that dropped out in the first half = 1/3 * 60
= 20
Number of runners remaining = 60 - 20
= 40
Number of runners dropping out in the second half = 40 * 1/4
= 10
Then the number of runners that finished the race = 40 - 10
= 30
Then 30 runners completed the race.
