Question 930176


{{{383}}} students 

{{{9}}} buses each filled with {{{x}}} students


{{{5}}} students had to travel in cars

{{{9x+5=383}}}

if you subtract car-riders: {{{9x=383-5=378}}} you got number of students traveling in bus

{{{9x=378}}}

{{{x=378/9}}}

{{{x=42}}}..............students were on each bus

check:

{{{9x+5=383}}}

{{{9*42+5=383}}}

{{{378+5=383}}}

{{{383=383}}}
