On Monday, 247 students went on a trip to the zoo. All six buses were filled and seven students had to travel in cars.How many students were in the bus
247 - 7 = 240
240 / 6 = ______ students on each bus
To find out how many students were on each bus, you need to divide the total number of students by the number of buses.
First, subtract the number of students who traveled in cars from the total number of students:
247 - 7 = 240
Since there were 6 buses, divide the remaining students by the number of buses:
240 รท 6 = 40
Therefore, there were 40 students on each bus.
