A certain roller coaster can accommodate 1,600 riders per hour. A digital sign states there are 345 people in line. If you get into line, about how many minutes will it take to get into the front of the line

The number of riders per minute ride is 1600 ÷ 60 = 26.7 ≈ 27 riders

If there are 345 riders = 345 ÷ 27 = 12.93 ≈ 13 minutes to get to the front line
