36 customers, 6 guides

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: We know that the total number of guides and customers combined is 42 people, and the ratio of customers to guides is 6/1 (Every 6 customers, there's 1 guide)

So how do we solve this?

One way you can solve this is by making a column. On one side, you put 6, and on the other, you put 1.

Here's an example (obviously, making a column with a keyboard is quite difficult):

6 | 1

What's 6+1?

7.

Now, we need to figure out how many groups of 7 can go into 42.

We can figure that out by dividing 42/7, which gives you 6.

So now let's go back to that column:

6 | 1

Since we know 6+1=7, we can make 6 rows of it:

6 | 1

6 | 1

6 | 1

6 | 1

6 | 1

6 | 1

We know that on the column 6 represents the customers, and 1 represents the guides. So, all we have to do left is either add or multiply (whichever you prefer). I'll show both ways:

Multiplying

We can multiply 6x6 for the left column to get 36. That's how many customers we have. And for the guides, we can multiply 6x1 and get 6. So now we know we have 36 customers and 6 guides.

Adding

On the left side of the column, we have six rows of 6. In order to figure out the amount of customers, all we need to do is add 6 six times. It should be like this:

6+6+6+6+6+6=36

To figure out the guides, we do the same thing, but instead of adding 6 six times, it's 1. (Hopefully for this, you won't need to rely on repeated addition. It's a lot easier to count for 1)

1+1+1+1+1+1=6

So now we know there are 36 customers and 6 guides.
