Answer:

The camp should have at least 7 adults next week.

Explanation:

To determine the number of adults needed for next week's camp with 63 campers, we can use a camper-to-adult ratio of 1:10.

Dividing the number of campers by the ratio, we get:

63 campers / 10 = 6.3

((Since we can't have a fraction of an adult, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the camp should have at least 7 adults next week to supervise the 63 campers.))
