Solution

The correct option is A $x = 102 - 7$
Total number of students $= 102$
Number of students traveled by car $= 7$
Let, Number of students traveled by bus $= x$

Hence, Total number of students - Number of students traveled by car = Number of students traveled by bus
$\Rightarrow 102 - 7 = x$
