Answer:

bus = 43

van 12

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using simultaneous equations

Let v represent the number of students that a van carries

Let b represent the number of students that a bus carries

the following equations can be derived from the question

3v + 2b = 122 eqn 1

5v + 3b = 189 eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 5 and eqn 2 by 3

15v + 10b = 610 eqn 3

15v + 9b = 567 eqn 4

Subtract equation 4 from 3

b = 43

Substitute for b in equation 1

3v + 2(43) = 122

solve for v

v = 12
