Beatrice · Answer 1

55 per 15 x4 60x 6 = 6 hours

55 times 4 times 6 and 1,320 rode on it

Emeline · Answer 2

15 minutes is one quarter of an hour, so the number of people accommodated in an hour would be 4 x 55 = 220 people per hour.

Then, multiply the number of people per hour by the 6 hours:

6 hours x 220 people = 1320 people in 6 hours.
