oshua is planning the awards breakfast for the freshman class. The catering company charges a $350 fee for the rental materials, plus $6 per person at the party. How many people can Joshua invite to the awards breakfast without exceeding his $625 budget?

Firsly remove the $350
$625-$350=$275
Each person is $6,so divide that from $275
275/6=45R5
The remaining $5 cannot be used to pay for another person,so we leave it as extras.
Therfore,45 people were at the the party.
