Answer:

School collected 273 coats in second month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total number of coats collected in 2 months = 542

Number of coats collected in first month = 269

We need to find the number of coat school collected in second month.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Total number of coats collected in 2 months is sum of Number of coats collected in first month and Number of coats collected in Second month.

Also We can say that;

Number of coats collected in Second month is equal to Total number of coats collected in 2 months minus Number of coats collected in first month.

framing in equation form we get;

Number of coats collected in Second month = $542-269 =273$

Hence School collected 273 coats in second month.
