    Step-by-step explanation:

    23 students + 5 adults = 28 people

    3 people per canoe

    divide 3 into 28 = 9.3

    you would need 10 canoes

    If there were only 27 people then 9 canoes would have been fine because

    9x3 = 27

    Answer: 10 canoes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    So, there is three teachers and two parents goingon the canoe trip along with twenty-three other students. Firstly, add the number of teachers and parents attending the trip, which totals out to be five, and then add the number of students going on the trip, which equals twenty-eight. Then, divide your answer, twenty-eight, by the number of people the canoes can hold, to get nine and three tenths. Finally, round nine and three tenths to the nearest benchmark, which is ten, to get how many canoes will be needed to give everyone a seat.
