Answer:

Number of students on each bus = 49

Explanation:

On Monday, 449 students went on a trip to the zoo. All 9 buses were filled and 8 students had to travel in cars.

Total number of students = 449.

Number of students traveled in car = 8

Number of students traveled in bus = 449 - Number of students traveled in car = 8

Number of students traveled in bus = 449 - 8 = 441

Number of buses = 9

Number of students traveled in bus = Number of buses x number of students on each bus

441 = 9 x number of students on each bus

Number of students on each bus = 49
