Answer:
a) 3/10 b) 9
Step-by-step explanation:
a) No. of students = 30
No. of students taking bus = 1/3*30 = 10
No. of students taking public transport = 1/5*30 = 6
No. of students driven by family = 1/6*30 = 5
No. of students left = 30-10+6+5 = 30-21 = 9
Fraction of students who walk to school = 9/30 = 3/10
b)No. of students who walk to school = 3/10*30 = 9
