Aria Glover · Answer 1

Given:

students going to the game = 56

students in each van = 7

number of vans used = unknown; x

The number sentence that can be used to find out how many vans are needed to take the students to the game is:

7 * x = 56

x = 56/7

x = 8 vans needed.

Winston Luna · Answer 2

I had this problem before, 8 vans are needed because 56 students : 7 students / van = 8 vans needed.
