Question

on a bus, Mia watched 8 people get off and 4 get on at the first stop, 3 people get off and 10 get on at the second stop, and 5 people get off and 7 get on at the third stop. if there are now 25 passengers, how many people were on the bus when Mia started counting?

Answer 1

Answer: 20

Explanation:

8 off + 3 off + 5 off = 16 off

4 + 10 + 7 = 21 who get on

25 passengers now which means 4 were left in the bus

16 + 4 = 20
