Answer:

Approximately 53 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

12% of the passengers go without a ticket
so that means 88% of the passengers go with ticket

The largest number of passengers in the tram cannot be greater than 60

Solution:

Set up the dimensions this way:

•part/whole = part/whole

•88%/100% = ?/60
________________________

Then multiply 60 x 88

60 x 88 = 5280

Then divided 5280 by 100

5280 divided by 100 = 52.8

________________________

So the largest number of passengers in the tram is approximately 53
