There are 136 people waiting for a river raft ride. each raft holds 8 people. silvia used the work below to find the number of rafts needed to hold 136 people. explain how her work to find out how many rafts are needed.

8 % 136

-80

= 56 - 56 =0

17 rafts are needed for 136 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of people waiting for river raft ride = ?

Number of people the raft holds = 8

To Find:

The number of rafts needed =?

Solution:

Let X be the total number rafts needed to accommodate  all the 136 people waiting for the River Raft ride.

So now X will be

X=

X=

X = 17

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
