Three eighths of the class ride the bus. If there are 24 students in the class how many students ride the bus? Explain how to use equivalent fractions to solve.
first, you need to divide 24 by 8 to get what is 1/8 the result is 3 and you need to multiply it by 3 to get 3/8 and the answer is 9 so 9 students ride the bus.
