Given:

Number or people on the beach at 8 o' clock = 12

Number of people triple every hour.

So, Number of people at 9 o' clock = 12 × 3 = 36

Number of people at 10 o' clock = 36 × 3 = 108

Number of people at 11 o' clock = 108 × 3 = 324

 

Hence, Number of people on the beach at 11 o' clock in the morning are 324.
