Teagan Carey · Answer 1

Your answer should be 3 roller coasters

Step-by-step example:

A roller coaster fit 11 people, and there are 34 people in the line.

Therefore you will have to multiply that by 3 which gives you 33, now there's you and the person in front of you, since you count 34 people in front of you, not including yourself. There's 3 more roller coaster rides to go before you get on.

Answer : four times

Step By Step:

If you add eleven people each time until you get number that is bigger then 35 you get that you need to add eleven four times until you reach 35 and more.

11 + 11 = 22 (Two Times)

11 + 11 + 11 = 33 (Three Times)

11 + 11 + 11 + 11 = 44 (Four Times)
