Theresa is setting up tables for a feast each table can sit 9 people. a total of 74 people are coming tot the feast, how many tables are needed for everyone to have a seat?
In order to do this question, you will need to divide the total number of people coming by the maximum amount of people a table can hold. You will get a remainder so what you need to do is to add one extra table from your answer.
Solution
= 74/9
= 8 R2
You will need 8 tables plus one more to accommodate the extra two people so you'll need a total of 9 tables.
