Question

A school bus has 22 rows of seats, and 4 students can be seated in each row. Students riding in the bus have filled 19 rows of seats, and 1/2 of the remaining seats. How many seats on the bus are empty (e)?

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

total no. of seats = 22 x 4 = 88

no. of empty seats = 88 -82 = 6
