Answer this question:A Ferris wheel can accommodate 70 people in 20 minutes. If the Ferris wheel is open from 1:00 pm until 7:00 pm, how many people will get to ride?
The Ferris wheel will be open for 7:00 - 1:00 = 6 hours. In one hour the wheel can ride 60 minutes / 20 minutes = 3 times the number of riders. The total per hour riders is 3 * 70 people = 210 people. If the ride is open 6 hours * 210 people = 1260 people can ride.
The answer is 1260.

Answer this question:At the gym, every day, there are 300 towels laid out for guest use. Each guest is given 1 towel during their visit. The gym is open from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. In the first hour, 50 guests enter the gym. In the second hour, 20% more guests enter than during the first hour. In the third hour, 25% more guests enter than in the second hour. In the fourth hour, one third more guests enter than in the third hour. In total, how many towels do they need to wash that evening?
In the second hour, the number of towels given out is 50 x 1.20 = 60. In the third hour, the number of towels given out is 60 x 1.25 = 75. In the fourth hour, one - third of the guests of the third hour is 75 / 3 = 25. In the fourth hour, the number of towels given out is 75 + 25 = 100. In total, including the first hour guests, they need to wash this many towels: 50 + 60 + 75 + 100 = 285.
The answer is 285.
