Question 1204350
<font color=black size=3>
n = number of people


The equation to solve is
185n + 15 + 27 = 2771


The unfortunate thing is that the solution is n = 2729/185 = 14.751 approximately
It's not possible to have a fractional number of people. It's possible that your teacher made a typo.


Edit: if the $27 refers to the cost per person to ride the bus, then the equation would be 185n + 15 + 27n = 2771 which solves to n = 13
