Ethel is arranging rides so that 27 members of her club can go bowling. Some people can ride in a van that belongs to the center where they meet. The rest must ride in cars. If 12 can go in the van, and 5 can go in each car, how many cars will they need?

Anyway

First you want to subtract the number of ppl that are going in a van (12) from the total amount of ppl going (27)

$$27-12=15$$

Divide that by the umber of ppl that can fit in (Each Car)

$$15\div5=3$$

So they will need 3 cars.
