Question

The cost of a bus for a field trip was split evenly between the 120 students going. But the day before the trip, 30 more students decided to go. Dividing the cost evenly among all 150 students brought the average cost down $1.20 per person. What is the total cost of the bus? NEED ANSWER ASAP! WILL PICK BRAINLIEST ANSWER AND REWARD 80 POINTS!

Answer 1

Alright,

120=students

150=students 

So if a question is asking you the total, then that means you must do addition.

The cost is 720

Hope this helped.

Answer 2

Hey there,

So there would be 150 students × by $1.20 per person would be $180.
_______________________________________________________________

→ All that was needed to do was to do 150 students multiplied by the prices of 1.20. That's it! Final answer would be $180.

Final answer $$\boxed{180}$

Hope this helps.
