Answer:

8 tables

Explanation:

She has total of five tables and 6 people seat on each table

So total number of people who seat om the table =5×6=30

It is given that no more than 62 people attend

So total number of people who will come =62

Number of people who are not seated on the table =62-30=32

Now he needs table on which 4 people can seat

So total number of tables
=(32)/(4)=8
