Answer:
3. The number of students that rode on each bus
Explanation:
The equation they give us is:
2b + 6 = 70
The question already tells us that in this equation:
2 is the 2 buses that the school hired
6 is the 6 leftover kids who couldn't fit on the 2 buses
The question also tells us that the 2 buses only have a total of 64 seats, so 32 seats on 1 bus (64/2 = 32).
So that means b would equal the 32 seats on 1 bus, or the number of students that rode on each bus.
