Aferris wheel can accommodate 45 people in 25 minutes . how many people could ride the ferris wheel in 2 hours ? what was that rate per hour ?

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to use the rule of three.

If a Ferris wheel can accomodate 45 people in 25 minutes, how many people could ride the Ferris wheel in 2 hours?

First, we need to transform hours to minutes. To do so, we know that 1 hour has 4 quarters where each one represents 25 minutes.

Now, if 45 people can be accommodated in 25 minutes, that means we have to multiply 45 by 8, to find the number for 2 hours. Becuase, as we said before, 25 minutes is the fourth part of an hour, and we have 2.

Therefore, in two hours, the Ferris wheel can transport 360 people.
