Megoldás. A buszban a gyerekek \(\displaystyle 2/3\) részének hátizsákja foglalt el egy-egy ülést, tehát az elfoglalt helyek összesen a gyerekek számának \(\displaystyle 5/3\) részével egyenlők. Mivel \(\displaystyle 50\) gyereknek lenne hely a buszban, ezért a gyerekek számának \(\displaystyle 5/3\) része \(\displaystyle 50\), azaz a gyerekek száma \(\displaystyle 30\).
