472 students are going on a field trip. 120 students will be returning home and the rest will be spending the night in cabins. If 8 people can sleep in one cabin, how many cabins need to be rented for the students?

470 kids went on the trip, and 120 students returned home, the total of kids staying is 350.

One cabin= 8 students

The equation i came up with is 350/8 = 43.75

They need 44 cabins to fit all the kids
