The table given shows a proportional relationship between the number of students (\( s \)) and the number of buses (\( b \)). According to the information provided, 3 buses are needed for 60 students.

We can find the rate per bus as follows:
\[
\frac{60 \text{ students}}{3 \text{ buses}} = 20 \text{ students per bus}
\]

This means for every bus, 20 students can ride. Using this rate, we can fill in the table for the other values of \( s \) by dividing the number of students by 20:

1. For 120 students:
   \[
   b = \frac{120}{20} = 6 \text{ buses}
   \]

2. For 180 students:
   \[
   b = \frac{180}{20} = 9 \text{ buses}
   \]

The completed table would be:
- 120 students need **6 buses**
- 180 students need **9 buses**

Would you like further details on proportional relationships, or have any questions?

Here are five related questions:
1. How do you calculate the number of buses if you have 200 students?
2. What happens to the number of buses if the students per bus ratio changes?
3. How can you represent this relationship with an equation?
4. What would the table look like if you needed only 2 buses for 60 students?
5. How does this proportional relationship help in real-life scenarios?

**Tip:** In proportional relationships, dividing one quantity by the other gives you a constant ratio, which helps in predicting values easily.

Fill in the table to show the number of buses, b, needed for each number of students, s.

Learn how to complete a proportional relationship table to find the number of buses needed for various numbers of students. This example shows a rate of 20 students per bus, solving for cases like 120 and 180 students.
