For a field trip 18 students rode in care and the rest filled 5 buses. How many students were in each bus if no more than 250 students went on the trip?

9 students were in each bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students that rode in each bus.

For a field trip 18 students rode in care and the rest filled 5 buses. This means that the number of students that rode in the 5 buses is 5x. Therefore, the total number of student that went on the field trip is

5x + 18

if no more than 250 students went on the trip, it means that

5x + 18 ≤ 250

5x ≤ 250 - 18

5x ≤ 232

x ≤ 232/5

x ≤ 46.4

Therefore, the number of students in each bus would be

46.4/5 = 9.28

Since the number of students cannot be a fraction and the buses were filled, then 9 students were in each bus.
