Question

A class used cars and vans to go on a field trip. They used 6 vehicles to go on the trip. Each car holds 5 students and each van holds 6 students. If 34 students went on the trip then how many of each type of vehicle did the class use?

Answer 1

5c + 6v = 34

c + v = 6

6c +6v = 36

c = 2 cars

v = 6-2 = 4 vans
