Explanation:

16$ per seat

*5 seats 16 * 5 = 80

80$ for 5 seats

160$ - $80 = 80$

The remaining money is 80 dollars which need to be spent on snacks:

4$ per snack

80$ / by 4$ = 20 snacks

Work ✔:

20 snacks = 80$

5 seats = 80$ Charity Goal = 160$

80$ + 80$ = 160$

Final answer:

The charity must sell 20 snacks to every five seats to reach the charity goal of 160$

Hope this Helps! :D
