Question

In the next three days, 2000 people will move to New Jersey. How many people, on average, will move to New Jersey each hour? Express your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

Hey, Rogue,
How about converting 3 days to hours?
Then divide the number of people moving to NJ by the number of hours.

Answer 2

total hours in a day=24
total hours in 3 days=24x3=72
total no. of people=2000
average people moving each hour=2000/72=28

Answer 3

Thanks so much, both of you!
