To find out how many fifth graders take a bus to school, we need to determine the difference between the total number of students and the number of students who either walk or ride a bike.
First, we calculate the number of students who walk or ride a bike.
Number of students who walk or ride a bike = (3/8) * 64
Number of students who walk or ride a bike = 24
Next, we subtract the number of students who walk or ride a bike from the total number of students.
Number of students who take a bus = Total number of students - Number of students who walk or ride a bike
Number of students who take a bus = 64 - 24
Number of students who take a bus = 40
Therefore, 40 fifth graders take a bus to school.

To find out how many fifth graders take a bus to school, we first need to calculate the number of students who walk or ride a bike.
Given that 3/8 of the 64 students walk or ride a bike, we need to find 3/8 of 64.
To do this, we multiply 64 by 3/8:
64 x 3/8 = (64 x 3) / 8 = 192 / 8 = 24
So, 24 fifth graders either walk or ride a bike to school.
To find out how many take a bus, we subtract this number from the total number of fifth graders:
64 - 24 = 40
Therefore, 40 fifth graders take the bus to school.
