Answer:

4 buses

Explanation:

To calculate the number of buses needed to transport everyone, you need to divide the total number of people (adults + students) by the bus capacity.

Total number of people = 18 adults + 165 students = 183

Bus capacity = 50 people

Number of buses needed = Total number of people / Bus capacity

Number of buses needed = 183 / 50

Performing the division:

Number of buses needed = 3 buses with a remainder of 33

Since you cannot have a fraction of a bus, you'll need to round up the number of buses to ensure that there's enough space for everyone. Therefore, you would need 4 buses to transport all 18 adults and 165 students on the field trip.
