17 numbers of rafts are required.

Explanation:

There are 136 people waiting for a river raft ride each raft holds 8 people.

Number of people = 136

Capacity of raft = 8 people

We need to find number of rafts required.

We have

Number of people = Number of rafts required x Capacity of raft

136 = Number of rafts required x 8

Number of rafts required = 17

17 numbers of rafts are required.
