The cars of a circular Ferris wheel at an amusement park are equally spaced about the wheel's circumference. They are numbered consecutively beginning with 1. The cars numbered 14 and 30 lie on opposite ends of a diameter. How many cars are on the Ferris wheel?

32 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that 14 and 30 lie on opposite sides of the ferris wheel, so we need to calculate how many cars are inbetween car number 14 and carn number 30. since each car is numbered starting from 1, we know that the cars do not skip any numbers. after counting, we know that there are 16 cars inbetween car number 14 and car number 30. since there are 2 sides of a circle we have to double our number by 2. so 16×2 is 32

Math step-by-step:

30-14=16

16×2=32
