For a trip, one high school rented and filled 5 vans and 6 buses with 187 students. Another high school instead fit its 176 students into 2 vans and 7 buses. With each bus and van seating the same number of students, how many students can a bus carry? How many students can a van carry?

15 students can fit in a van and 21 students can fit in a bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

ad = ae + ed = y + 7

similar triangles therefor

ac/ab = ad/ae

6/4 = (y + 7) / y

cross multiply

6y = 4(y + 7)

6y = 4y + 28

2y = 28

y = 14

step-by-step explanation:

first one is a: renaming a fraction. second one is c: de-c
