Question

331 students went on a field trip. Six buses were filled and 7 students traveled in cars how many students were in each bus

Answer 1

54 students per bus.

Explanation:

To find how many students traveled in each bus, we must first know how many travelled in all the buses.

There are 331 students in all, and 7 did not travel in a bus.

331 - 7 = 324

If each bus had the same amount of passengers, then we can use an average to find out how many were in each bus. s = students and b = busses

`(324s)/(6b) = (54s)/(1b)`

There were 54 students per bus.
