Answer:

38 people

Explanation:

Given: To transport
228 people to an island island ferry make six different trips on each trip the ferry carries the same number of people.

To Find: how many people does the ferry transport on each trip.

Solution:

Total number of people to be transported
=228

Total number of trips made by island ferry
=6

As ferry carries same number of people in each trip

number of people ferry transport in each ferry
=\frac{\text{total number of people to be transported}}{\text{total number of ferries}}

putting values,


=(228)/(6)


38

Hence number of people ferry transport in each island ferry is
38.
