Question

There are 229 students in a school who are all going on a field trip to the coast. A bus can hold at most 32 students. How many busses are needed in order to transport all the students?
6 busses
7 busses
8 busses
9 busses

Answer 1

Answer:

8 Buses

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Do 229/32 to find the amount of buses needed

     The answer is 7.15

2.) 7.15 means there is a remainder and because we cannot take a part of a person we must round up to 8

Answer 2

8 busses. 32 x 8 = 256. With eight busses, you would have lots of spare seats. 29 spare seats to be exact. Hope this helped
