Final answer:
In this case, the airplane made approximately 40 flights last week.
The correct answer is: d) 40 flights
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of flights the Airbus A330-300 made last week, we can divide the total number of passengers (4,172) by the number of passengers per flight (105).
Total number of passengers = Number of flights × Number of passengers per flight
Let's denote the number of flights as 'f' and the number of passengers per flight as 'p'. According to the given hint, the number of passengers per flight is 105.
We can write the equation as:
4,172 = f × 105
To solve for 'f', we divide both sides of the equation by 105:
4,172 ÷ 105 = f
Approximately 39.73 = f
Since the number of flights must be a whole number, we round to the nearest whole number:
f ≈ 40
Therefore, the airplane made approximately 40 flights last week.
The correct answer is:d) 40 flights
