Answer:

11.25minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that lifts unloads 576 skiers per hour at the top of the slope, this is expressed as;

576skiers = 1hr

To determine the time it will take 108skier, we can write

108skier = x

Divide both expressions

576/108 = 1/x

576x =108

x = 108/576

x = 0.1875hr

Convert to minute

x = 0.1875×60

x = 11.25minutes

Hence it took the ride 11.25minutes
