54 * (2/3) = 36 students were on the bus.
54 - 36 = 18 chaperones were on the bus.
Answer:
There were a total of 72 Easter eggs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since five students participated in an Easter egg hunt, where Ally snatched up one quarter of all of the eggs, Brett only managed to get half of what Ally found, Lee snagged six more than Brett, Jen ended up with half of Lee's take, While Lisa snagged three times that, to determine how many eggs were there in total, the following calculation must be performed:
Ally: 0.25X
Brett: 0.125X
Read: 0.125X + 6
Jen: 0.0625X + 3
Smooth: 0.1875X + 9
X - 0.25X - 0.125X - 0.125X - 0.0625X - 0.1875X = 0.25
0.25X = 6 + 3 + 9
0.25X = 18
Ally: 18
Brett: 9
Read: 15
Jen: 7.5
Smooth: 22.5
18 + 9 + 15 + 7.5 + 22.5 = X
72 = X
Thus, there were a total of 72 Easter eggs.
