To find the number of cable cars needed to fill the line, divide the total number of people in line by the number of people each cable car can hold:
51 people / 6 people per cable car = 8.5 cable cars
Since the number of cable cars must be a whole number, we can round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the people in line will fill 9 cable cars.
