The wheel has ten seats and each seat can fit one couple. each minute a seat passes by the entrance exit stage. the wheel starts functioning at 8pm for half an hour-how many couples took a ride

The first thing you should know is that the wheel works for half an hour.

Half an hour = 30 minutes.

We can make the following rule of three:

1 min - - - > 10

30 min - - - > x

Clearing x

x = ((30) / (1)) * (10) = 300

answer

300 couples took a ride
