Question

Milli plans to rent a room for her birthday party for $40. The catering charge is $12 per person but there is no charge for Milli's meal since she is the guest of honor. If Milli has $100 to spend on her birthday party, how many guests can she invite?

Answer 1

she has 100

subtract 40 for renting the room

100-40 =60

now divide 60 by 12 to find number of people

60/12 = 5

she can invite 5 people
