The Science Club arranged a trip to Smithsonian. Only 2/3 of the members were able to attend, which left one seat empty on the 25-passenger bus. How many members does the Science Club have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

36 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of science club members

There are 24 people on the bus (1 seat empty on the 25 seat bus)

2/3 of the club attended and that equals 24 people on the bus

2/3x = 24

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 * 2/3x = 24 * 3/2

x = 36
