Answer 1

Part A: Each cable car can hold 6 riders, so the number of cable cars needed to fill the line is 51 divided by 6, which equals 8.5. However, since cable cars cannot be filled partially, we must round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the people in line will fill 9 cable cars.
The answer for Part A is 9 cable cars.

Part B: To calculate the number of people needed to fill the next cable car, we need to find the remainder when the total number of people (51) is divided by the number of riders per cable car (6). The remainder is 3.
The answer for Part B is 3 people.

Answer 3

Part A: To determine the number of cable cars needed to fill the line, divide the total number of people in line (51) by the number of riders per cable car (6). The calculation is 51 / 6 = 8.5. However, since cable cars cannot be filled with half a person, we need to round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the people in line will fill 9 cable cars.

The answer for Part A is 9 cable cars.

Part B: To determine the number of more people needed to fill the next cable car, calculate the difference between the total number of people in line (51) and the number of people already on the filled cable cars (9 * 6 = 54). The calculation is 54 - 51 = 3.

The answer for Part B is 3 people.
