Final answer:

There are 5 buses taking 35 people each to a game, which amounts to 175 people. The total number of people including the additional bus cannot be calculated without further information.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question is about determining the total number of people being taken to a game by a certain number of buses. According to the problem, there are 5 buses, each taking 35 people to a game. The total number of people taken by these 5 buses can be calculated by multiplying the number of buses by the number of people each bus can carry (5 buses * 35 people/bus). This gives us a total of 175 people.

If there is an additional bus taking more people to the game, the total number would increase. However, the problem does not provide the number of people on the additional bus, so we cannot calculate the new total. To find the complete total number of people going to the game, we need to know how many people are on the additional bus.
