Certainly! Let's break down the problem step-by-step.
1. Total Number of Passengers:
- There are 175 passengers traveling in the double-decker bus.
2. Fraction of Passengers on the Deck:
- We are given that \(\frac{3}{5}\) of the passengers are sitting on the deck.
3. Calculate the Number of Passengers on the Deck:
- To find out how many passengers are on the deck, we multiply the total number of passengers by the fraction on the deck:
[tex]\[
\text{Passengers on the deck} = 175 \times \frac{3}{5}
\][/tex]
- This results in:
[tex]\[
\text{Passengers on the deck} = 105
\][/tex]
4. Determine the Number of Passengers on the Upper Deck:
- To find the number of passengers on the upper deck, we subtract the number of passengers on the deck from the total number of passengers:
[tex]\[
\text{Passengers on the upper deck} = 175 - 105
\][/tex]
- This gives us:
[tex]\[
\text{Passengers on the upper deck} = 70
\][/tex]
Therefore, there are 70 passengers traveling on the upper deck of the bus.
