120 people per 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the Ferris wheel can accommodate 60 people in a half hour. In order to find the number of people per hour,  just multiple 60 by two. This will get you the 120 people per hour. Since you need to know how many people can ride in a total of 5 hours,  you can multiple 120 by 5 to get 600.
