The question also states that Lucy has a winning probability of 1/50, which means that she has 1 chance of winning if the total runners were 50. Therefore, there are 49 runners who may be faster than her.
The fact that Lucy is the 50th slowest runner, means that starting from the slowest she is in 50th position, therefore there are 49 runners that are slower than her.
The total number of runners will be the sum of those faster than Lucy, those slower than Lucy and Lucy:
49 + 49 + 1 = 99
There are 99 runners in Lucy's school.

Answer: 90 visitors per hour
Explanation: "Per hour" means in 1 hour, so we can rewrite the given statement using fractions as <em>450 visitors/5 hours = __visitors/1 hour</em>.
To find out what goes in the bank, notice that we
have a 1 in the denominator of our second fraction.
So we want to find a fraction that is equivalent
to 450/5 that has a 1 in the denominator.
If we divide the numerator and denominator of 450/5 by 5,
we get the equivalent fraction 90/1 or <em>90 visitors/1 hour</em>.
So now we have <em>90 visitors/1 hour = __visitors/1 hour</em>.
So a 90 must go in the blank.
This means that the museum sees 90 visitors per hour.
