Answer:

48 in each bus because 288 divided by 6 is 48

298-10=288

288/6=48

Answer:

48

Explanation:

We know there are 298 students in all, and 10 students traveled in cars. What we want to know now is take 298 and minus 10 to find out how many students were in each bus.

298 - 10 = 288

Now we can take 288 and divide it by 6 because there are 6 buses.

288 ÷ 6 = 48

There are 48 students on each bus.
