Answer:

No he did not.

Explanation:

Why the answer is no is because all I did was multiplied 15 and 9 and got 135. There are 140 students, but there will only be enough room for 135. Answer is no.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation: well, the total number of tourists=140

Number of vans rented =15

Nuber of tourists each van can hold =9

To know exactly how much vans are required we need to divide 140 by 9.

140÷9 = 15.5555...

Hence , the tour guide has rented enough vans

Hope it's clear for you !! :)
