3 answers

a. 1 row

b. 6 people

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Each train has 7 rows yet the first train only had 6 rows filled up. This means that:

= 7 - 6

= 1 row was empty

b. Riders stand in rows of 6 which means that one row has 6 people. With only 1 row empty, the number of people needed will be:

= 6 people i hope this helps man
