15 students will not be able to ride on bus for the field trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of seats in one bus = 22 seats

1 seat is for 2 students, therefore, one bus can sit students;

No. of students in one bus = 22*2 = 44 seats

Total buses = 5

One bus can have 44 students, 5 buses can have;

5 buses = 44*5 = 220 students

Total students = 235

As the buses can have 220 students;

Students left = Total students - No. of students in 5 buses

$Students\ left=235-220=15\ students$

15 students will not be able to ride on bus for the field trip.
