Question

A bus is carrying 180 passengers, which is 67 of the capacity of the bus. What is the capacity of the bus?

Answer 1

capacity of the bus = 269 passengers

Explanation:

let capacity of the bus = x

total passengers = 180

which is 67% of the capacity of the bus

thus,

67% of x = 180

x * 67/100 = 180

67x = 18000

x = 18000/67 = 268.7 = 269 passengers
