Three hundred students went on a field trip to the zoo. Six buses were filled and 12 students rode in cars. how many students were on each bus

Answer 1

To find out how many students were on each bus, we can follow these steps:

1. Start with the total number of students: 300.
2. Subtract the number of students who rode in cars: 300 - 12 = 288 students who rode the buses.
3. There are 6 buses, so we divide the number of students by the number of buses: 288 ÷ 6 = 48.

Therefore, there were 48 students on each bus.
