Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine How many Number of Salespeople does Wally need to adequately sell waterslides

Using this formula

Number of Salespeople=(Number of customers*Calls necessary*Hours per call)/Average selling time available per year

Let plug in the formula

Number of Salespeople= (6000* 5 * 1.5 hours per call) / 900 hours

Number of Salespeople= 45,000 / 900

Number of Salespeople=50

Therefore Number of Salespeople that Wally need to adequately sell waterslides is ,50
