Question

A bus can hold 70 passengers. If there are 14 rows of seats on the bus, how many seats are in each row?

• A. 9
• B. 6
• C. 5
• D. 10

Answer 1

The correct option is C 5

Total number of passengers = 70

There are 14 rows of seats on the bus.
=> Number of seats in each row
= 70 $÷$ 14
Let's use multiplication to find the answer.
Let's try 5.
14
$\times$$\underset{–}{5}$
70
Thus, 70 $÷$ 14 = 5
So, there would be 5 seats in each row.
