Question

There are 135 students going on a field trip. Each school bus holds 40 students. How many buses are needed?​

Answer 1

4 busses are needed. Well 135 students going on a field trip and each bus holds 40 students. There can’t be “half” a bus but instead you can have a bus thats not all the way filled. Plus youc an’t duplicate or divide the a light of children so 4 busses.

Explanation:

40x ≥ 135

Solve that and the answer has to be a whole number greater then the proposed decimal.

135/40= 3.375

3.375 and it can’t be rounded down and only up to the nearest whole digit so round it to 4.

4 busses.

Answer 2

4

Explanation:

135/40=3.37 so 4 buses are needed
