Answer:

There were 25 passengers in each boat.

Explanation:

Given that:

Number of boats chartered by the company = 13

Total number of passengers in the boats = 325

Average number of passengers per boat can be calculated by dividing total number of passengers to number of boats chartered.

Average number of passengers =
(325)/(13)

Average number of passengers = 25 passengers per boat

Hence,

There were 25 passengers in each boat.
