Answer 1

To find out how many times Delon can ride the roller coaster, we first need to determine how many tickets he has left after riding the carousel.

Delon starts with 37 tickets and uses 4 tickets for the carousel:

\[ 37 - 4 = 33 \text{ tickets remaining} \]

Next, each ride on the roller coaster uses 3 tickets. To find out how many times he can ride the roller coaster, we divide the remaining tickets by the number of tickets needed per ride:

\[ \frac{33}{3} = 11 \]

Thus, Delon can ride the roller coaster 11 times.

The correct answer is 11.
