One class had v kids in it, another class had y kids in it and another class had x kids in it. Kids from all three classes were equally divided into two buses. How many kids are on each bus? Write an expression.
1 answer
The total number of kids is v + y + x. Since the kids are equally divided into two buses, we can divide the total number of kids by 2. Thus, the expression for the number of kids on each bus is (v + y + x)/2.
