Answer: 32 people will ride on each bus.


Step-by-step explanation: First, you need to add the total amount of people going on the bus. You add the number of students and adults. 267 kids + 21 adults = 288 total people. Now, you divide 288 by 9 and get 32. That means 32 people will ride on each bus.

Answer:

p = (267+21)/9

p = 32

Explanation:

The total number of people going on a trip are the kids plus the adults

people = 267+21

= 288

There are 9 buses.

To find out how many people per bus, divide the number of people by the number of buses.

288 people/ 9 buses

32 people per bus

Equation:

p = (267+21)/9

p = 32
