thank you, that makes it a lot easier.
If it is 15 parts, I figured 40 engines divided by 15 parts which equals 2 3/8. 2 3/8 engines in each part. 2 3/8 * 3 (parts that could climb the hill) = 7 1/8 parts that could climb the hill Am I heading in the right direction?
I am having troubles with the first part that I forgot to type... How many parts was the group divided? Would that be 15 parts or 8 parts?
60 seconds = 1 minute 60 minutes = 1 hour 24 hours = 1 day 60 sec. x 60 minutes = 3600 seconds in one hour 3600 seconds x 24 = 86,400 seconds in one day
