Answer:
7 school buses will be needed to take the children of Anderson school on a field trip
Step-by-step explanation:
number of children = 390
We are told that each bus carries 60 people
Therefore
60 people = 1 bus
1 person = (1 ÷ 60)
∴ 390 people = [tex]\frac{1}{60}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{390}{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{390}{60}[/tex] = 6.5 (approx. 7 buses)
Therefore, 7 school buses will be needed to take the children of Anderson school on a field trip, but the seventh bus will be half-filled with children.
