Since participants have an equal chance of receiving each type of coupon, we can find the expected number of people who would receive a coupon for sleigh rides by dividing the total number of participants by the number of options (3).
Expected number of people receiving a coupon for sleigh rides = 900 / 3 = 300
Therefore, the expected number of people who would receive a coupon for sleigh rides is 300.
