Step-by-step explanation:

42 people per minute

how many minutes for 15000 people ?

well, how often does 42 fit into 15000 ?

15000/42 = 357.1428571... minutes

and since we want to bring in everyone of the 15000, we have to count the fraction of the last minute as minute.

so, we have 358 minutes.

and that is in hours, as 1 hour = 60 minutes

358/60 = 5.9... hours

so, the rounded answer is 6 hours.
