That's close enough for me. The actual number is 373. I wonder what is average? Well take it away John.

I traveled to school on a school bus when I was in Junior High School. How long was the bus ride to school? How long was the bus ride home? Why was there a difference?

[edit] in minutes please.

Ok the bus took a different route going to school than it did going back, and I’ll say 200 minutes there and back.

A bit high for the total, and I wanted separate numbers in any case.

Total is too high, the difference is a bit too small, and the reason is completely wrong. (No trains anywhere near the route).

Total is too high. Order is wrong. Difference is too small.

I was the among the first on the bus (watched the driver inspect the bus every morning).
I was the among the last off the bus (watched her back into the parking space a few times - mostly just went home though).

There were 6 to ten of us at that stop depending on the year.

Hint for the day. I spent much more time getting to school than coming home.
