Answer:

1/10

Explanation:

1) to find the students who take the bus we need to find the ones who don't

1/5=2/10

7/10+2/10=9/10

9 out of 10 kids dont take the bus, so the ones that do are:

10/10-9/10=1/10

1/10 of the students take the bus

Hope this helps!

You have 2/10 and 7/10, adding those together you get 9/10 of the student population leaving 1/10 of the students left.
