Answer:
Exact: 16.6
Rounded: 17
Explanation:
1 coach = 50 people (50 / 1 = 50 people)
2 coaches = 100 people (100 / 2 = 50 people)
x coaches = 830 people (830 / x = 50 people)
830 / x = 50
mutely both sides by x
830 / x * x = 50 * x
830 = 50x
divided both sides by 50 to get x alone
830 / 50 = 50x / 50
830/50 = x
16.6 couches needed to fit 830 people
To solve this exercise, we solve it by means of division:
If a coach has capacity for 50 people.
Therefore we divide 830 by 50:
1 6. 6 ⇒ Answer
5 0 | 8 3 0
5 0
3 3 0
3 0 0
0 0 0
Therefore, for 830 people, 16.6 coaches are needed.
