There are 2 drivers, one in each bus. They are tipping each bus driver $20. Since there are 2 drivers, together they are tipping the bus drivers $40. Subtract $40 from the money they raised up.

$240 - $40 = $200 -> Money spent altogether for the bus rental

Since they are renting 2 busses, divide the bus money ($200) by 2.

$200 ÷ 2 = $100

ANSWER: They can spend $100 on each bus rental.
