Question

A bus makes a stop at 2:30, letting off 13 people and letting on 5. The bus makes another stop ten minutes later to let off 5 more people. How does the people on the bus after the second stop compare to the number of people on the bus before the 2:30 stop?

Answer 1

If there were 100 people before reaching first stop

They remained

• 100-8
• 92people

At second stop

TOTAL people

• 92-5=87

The no of people are decreased by 13
