Hi,
A) 800 students
. ------------------- = 8.88 which rounds up to 9 buses
. . 90 per bus
9 buses x 155 = $1,395
B) 800 students
. ------------------- = 13.33 which rounds up to 14 buses
. . 60 per bus
14 buses x 110 = $1,540
I hope that helps!! :-)

A/ If the school decides to take large buses, we need to see how many buses can carry 800 students first:
As 1 bus can hold 90 students, we need to take 800/90 then we have 8.8888 ( should be 9 buses) and it will cost $155x9=$1,395
B/ If the school decides to take small buses, we need to see how many buses can carry the 800 students:
As 1 bus can hold 60 students, we need to take 800/60 then we have 13.3333 (should be 14 buses) and it will cost $110x14=$1,540

wow,
A: find out how many busses are needed for the amount of students, by dividing 90 into 800 = 9 then multiply by cost 155, sooooo, $1395
you round up for busses, because u cant have an .88 of a bus
B: same steps for the small bus, 800 divided by 60, (14) times 110 = $1540
you should really work on you math skills, if u cant do that

800/90 = 8.888888889 so 9 of the 90-passenger buses required
9 * 155 = $1395
800/60 = 13.333 so 14 of the 60-passenger buses required
14 *110 = $1510

A) $1,395 for 9 buses to hold all students (800/90) x 155
B) $1,540 for 14 buses to hold all students (800/60) x 110

large buses:
90 x 155 = $13950
small buses:
60 x 110 = $6600

A. 800/90=8.888 --> round to the nearest which is 9
9 * $155=$ 1,395 was the expense
B. 800/60=13.333--> round to the nearest which is 14
14 * 110 =$ 1,540 was the expense

A. large buses
800/90 = 8.89 take 9 buses
9 bus ($155/bus) = $1395
B. small buses
800/60 = 13.33 take 14 buses
14 bus($110/day) = $1540
Select your bus.
