Answer:

11 rides

Explanation:

First Step - Subtract 6 from 40 because that will not be of use for now.

40-6=34

Next Step - divide 34 by 3 to find the number of rides.

(you will end up with a decimal so I rounded it up to a whole number.)

34/3=11 (rounded)

The final answer is 11 rides.

Hope this helped :)
