    Spinning Swings

    10 more riders

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find which ride will have more riders each hour, we need to first convert an hour into minutes.

    1 hour = 60 minutes

    Now we let's first find how many riders there will be in the race cars.

    So there are 25 riders every 30 minutes.

    in 60 minutes there will be:

    25 x 2 = 50 Riders

    Now for the spinning swings there are 20 riders every 20 minutes.

    In 60 minutes there will be:

    20 x 3 = 60 Riders

    Therefore, the spinning swings will have more riders as 60 > 50.

    Now to find how many more riders there will be in the spinning swings.

    We simply subtract the total number of riders of each ride from each other.

    Race Cars = 50

    Spinning Swings = 60

    60 - 50 = 10

    There will be 10 more riders in the spinning cups than the race cars.
