So from the situation you can set up a set of equation:

10v+6b=276
5v+2b=117

I will first solve for b
10v+4b=234
2b=42
Each bus holds 21 students.
5v+42=117
5v=75
v=25

In conclusion, each van holds 25 students and bus holds 21 students

How do you simplify a complex fraction
forsale [732]
A compound fraction is simplified by multiplying the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator fraction. This process is repeated as often as necessary at every level of the fraction.

Examples:
(a/b)/(c/d) = (ad)/(bc)
a/(b/c) = (ac)/b
(a/b)/c = a/(bc)

_____
When the fraction has numerators or denominators that are fractions, you need to be very clear about what is being divided by what. If it isn't clear by the typesetting (length or boldness of fraction bars), then parentheses are required around numerators and around denominators.
