Answer:

20s=m

Step-by-step explanation:

I really don't understand it that well but all that I can is that s can represent students that went on the trip, and each student's ticket cost is 20$, so 20*s=20s, but we are taking m as the total money collected, so we can end up saying that 20s=m, hope u understood :)
