Question

253 students went on a field trip. Six

buses were filled and 25 students traveled
in cars. How many students were in each
bus?​

Answer 1

Answer:38

Explanation:

if there were 253 children and 6 buses and f 25 children had to go by car then,

253-25=228

228/6=38

Answer 2

There are 38 students on each bus

Solution:

Given that,

Total number of students went to trip = 253

Number of buses filled = 6

Number of students traveled in car = 25

To find : Number of students in each bus

Total number of students = students traveled by buses + students traveled by cars.

253 students = number of buses
`*` number of students per bus + 25 students

253 – 25 = 6
`*` number of students per bus

6
`*` number of students per bus = 228

Number of students per bus =
`(228)/(6) = 38`

Hence, there are 38 students in each bus
