Question

It takes 16 people to pull a 30 ton cable wire. How many people would it take to pull a 60 ton cable wire?

Answer 1

The answer to this question is 32

Step-by-step explanation

16/30 cross multiplies x/60

after you get, 960=30x

then divide by 30 and then you get 32.

or you can just take 16 and multiply it by two since 60 is a multiple of 30.
