Answer:

8 students in each van, 22 students in each bus

Explanation:

Let's say v is number of students in each van

and b the number of students in each bus.

Let's make the equations:

8v + 8b = 240

4v + 1b = 54

8v + 8b = 240

v + b = 30

b = 30 - v

now let's use b = 30 - v and insert it into 4v + 1b = 54

4v + (30 - v) = 54

3v + 30 = 54

3v = 24

v = 8

b = 30 - v = 30 - 8 = 22
