So, you have to figure out what the cost for one person is 75.50/5=15.10 Then if there's 14 people going on the bus you multiply that by 14 15.10*14=211.40
75.50/5=s
s*14=a
A= How much it would cost
A=211.40
75.50/5=s
s*14=a
A= How much it would cost
A=211.40

First, you would have to divide 75.50 by 5, this gives you 15.10, multiply THAT by fourteen, this (my personal calculations gave me) 211.40... Jaxson was very, very correct.
