A bus makes a stop at 2:30, letting off 13 people and letting on 5. The bus makes another stop ten minutes later to let off 5 more people. How does the people on the bus after the second stop compare to the number of people on the bus before the 2:30 stop?

If there were 100 people before reaching first stop

Then at first stop

They remained

  • 100-(13+5)
  • 100-8
  • 92people

At second stop

TOTAL people

  • 92-5=87

The no of people are decreased by 13
