Lauren is planning a field trip. She has 79 students and 12 chaperones attending. Each bus can hold 32 people. How many busses will Lauren need to hire?

3 buses.
79+12= 91
91/32 (91 divided by 32)
which is 2.84 but round it which becomes a 3
32x3= 96 so it needs 3 buses to fit 91 people.

- hope it helps :)

I would think 3? it should be 3 because 32*2=64 which isn’t everyone 32*3 is 96
79+12=91
