(n-1)/x
(n-1)/x
i think (n-1)/x is correct answer
for x tickets it takes 1 minute
so for n tickets it takes n*1/x
but here he asked time he had to wait to get his ticket so..n should be replaced with (n-1)
for x tickets it takes 1 minute
so for n tickets it takes n*1/x
but here he asked time he had to wait to get his ticket so..n should be replaced with (n-1)
Ok, i agree, the right answer is (n-1)/x... but i can't find it in the answers available!!!
Option C is n-1/x not (n-1)/x
The question states: ...which approximates...
Which of the options available aproximates the right answer?
I think that if my guess is correct, the answer is E
