Answer 1

Answer: 2/15

Explanation:

We are given the information that at Bridgeview School, 7/10 of the total students are driven to school by their parents and that 1/6 of the total students at Bridgeview School ride the bus.

The fraction of the students that walk to school would be:

= 1 - (7/10 + 1/6)

= 1 - (21/30 + 5/30)

= 1 - 26/30

= 4/30

= 2/15
