Answer:

Number of vans = 7 students

Number of buses = 60 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of vans = x

Number of buses = y

2x + 11y = 674 (1)

6x + 14y = 882 (2)

Multiply (1) by 3

6x + 33y = 2,022 (3)

6x + 14y = 882 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3)

33y - 14y = 2,022 - 882

19y = 1,140

y = 1,140 / 19

= 60

y = 60 students

Substitute y = 60 into

2x + 11y = 674 (1)

2x + 11(60) = 674

2x + 660 = 674

2x = 674 - 660

2x = 14

x = 14/2

= 7

x = 7 students
