At Six Flags, 1,473 people entered the park in 3 hours. At Hershey Park, they had 944 guests

enter the park in 2 hours. If the rates were constant the entire time, which park had more
people enter in the first hour?

Six Flags:

1,473/3 = 491 people per hour.

Hershey Park:

944/2 = 472 people per hour.

Six Flags has more people in the first hour. Six Flags has 19 more people than Hershey Park.

491>472

I hope this helps you!!
