Respuesta :

Answer:

81 students went on the field trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Total number of students went on the field trip be 'x'.

Now Given;

Number of student went on Large bus = 54

We need to find the Total number of students went on the field trip

Solution:

Also Given:

two-thirds of the total participants road a large bus,

So we can say that;

Number of student went on Large bus is equal to two-third times total number of students went on field trip.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]\frac{2}{3}x=54[/tex]

Now Multiplying both side by [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] we get;

[tex]\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{2}{3}x=54\times \frac{3}{2}\\\\x=81[/tex]

Hence 81 students went on the field trip.
