Answer 2

I am having troubles with the first part that I forgot to type... How many parts was the group divided? Would that be 15 parts or 8 parts?

Answer 3

If it is 15 parts, I figured 40 engines divided by 15 parts which equals 2 3/8. 2 3/8 engines in each part.

2 3/8 * 3 (parts that could climb the hill) = 7 1/8 parts that could climb the hill

Am I heading in the right direction?

3/8 would indicate that the group is divided into 8 parts. Three of those eight parts could climb the hill.
