Divide 111÷15=7.4 Then multiply 7 by 15=105 Then subtract 111-105=6 Jess will be serving 6 guests

Answer:-Jess will serve any 6 guests.


Explanation:-

Total guests attending a party =111

Number of servers=15

As each server has the same number of guests to serve, divide total guests by number of servers, we get

111÷15

We know that 15×7=105

Now, 111-105=6....> remainder=6 and quotient=7

Thus, Jess will serve any 6 guests.
