Question

There are 267 students and 21 adults going on a field trip an equal number of people will ride on each bus there are 9 buses how many people ride in each bus solve and write equations

Answer 1

The number of people on each bus is 32

Explanation:

We are given

Total number of students =267

Total number of adults =21

So,

Total number of passengers = ( Total number of students)+(Total number of adults)

now, we can plug values

Total number of passengers =267+21

Total number of passengers =288

We are given

Number of buses=9

so,

Number of passengers on each bus = (total number of passengers)/( Number of buses)

now, we can plug values

Number of passengers on each bus is

`=(288)/(9)`

`=32`

So,

The number of people on each bus is 32
