Answer 1

Answer:

There were  58  students in each bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students  x= 237

Number of students who travelled by car  = 5

∴  Number of students who travelled by bus  = 237 − 5 = 232

Presuming the buses to have the same capacity, and knowing that there were four buses, the number of students in each bus can be expressed as:

x =232 ÷4

x = 58

Answer 2

Answer:

47 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 427

4 students had to travel in cars.

So, the remaining students = 427 - 4 = 423 students

So, 423 students had to travel in 9 buses

Divide 423 equally over 9 buses

∴The number of students in each bus = 423/9 = 47 students
