Rita's graduation picnic will cost $3 for every attendee. At most how many attendees can there be if Rita only budgets a total of $87 dollars for her graduation picnic?

To figure out how many attendees Rita can have at her picnic, we must divide the total amount that she has in her budget for her graduation picnic ($87) by the cost for every attendee ($3).

$87/$3 = 29

Therefore, Rita can have at most 29 attendees if Rita has the above cost parameters.

Hope this helps!
