Answer:

15 students at school

Explanation:

So there is 50 students in total

First subtract that much with how much students have the flu

1/10 = 5/50

So 5 students have the flu

That leaves 45 students

Then subtract that much with the amount of students that are remaining are on the field trip

45 divided by 3 = 15

so 2/3 = 30/45 (they can both be multiplied and divided by 15)

so 30 of the 45 students are on the field trip

45 - 30 = 15

That means there are 15 students left over at school
