Answer:

There are 72 people in the flight from Baltimore to Orlando .

Explanation:

The number of people on his first flight =five more than four times the number of people on his second flight.  

Let the number of people on 2 nd flight be n,  

then number of people on1 st flight will be 5 + 4 x n = 4n + 5

If there were 365 people altogether on the two flights, then the number of people on the flight to Baltimore to Orlando

n + (4n + 5) = 365  

n + 4n = 365 – 5  

5n = 360  

[tex]n=\frac{360}{5}[/tex]

n = 72
