Question

please i need help with a question hi there are 267 students and 21 adults going of people will ride on each bus, if there are 9 buses, how many people will ride on each bus ? write and solve the questions.

Answer 1

Step 1:

We will calculate the total number of people for the journey

The number of students are

`=267`

The number of adults are

`=21`

The number of buses is

`=9`

The total number of students will be

`\begin{gathered} =267+21 \\ =288 \end{gathered}`

Step 2:

Assuming that an equal number of people will ride on each bus

To calculate the number of people to ride on each bus, we will use the formula below

`=\frac{Number\text{ of people}}{nu\text{mber of buses}}`
`\begin{gathered} =(288)/(9) \\ =32 \end{gathered}`

Hence,

32 people will ride on each bus
