Question

A small school bus holds 26 students. A larger school bus holds 150% as many students as the small school bus. How many students does the larger school bus hold?
Please help :/

Answer 1

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use a proportion:

150 : 100 = x : 26

x = (26*150)/100 = 39

Answer 2

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

150% of 26 is 39

on a calculator do 26 times 150% and it equally 39

another way to do it is do 26 divided by 2 which equals 13, then add 13 to 26 and you get 39
