It would be an odd number of teams. What I did was add 43 and 34 together. Which gave me 77. So 77 people total wanted to race. There can only be 8 racers on each team. Each means to divide. So I divided 8 and 77. It gave me 9 with a remainder of 5. So there will e 9 teams and 5 racers left out. (:
