STEP 1
find total that travelled on buses; subtract number that went in cars from total number of students

= 330 total - 8 in cars
= 322 travelled in buses


STEP 2
divide 322 students among 7 buses

= 322 ÷ 7 buses
= 46 students per bus


ANSWER: 46 students travelled on each of the 7 buses.

Hope this helps! :)
