Question

The members of a Chess Club join a motivation camp. 8 members will be housed in every tent. If 150 members Join the camps, calculate the minimum number of tents required.​

Answer 1

To find the minimum number of tents required to house 150 members of the Chess Club at the motivation camp, you will need to divide the number of members by the number of members per tent.

There are 8 members per tent and 150 members total, so the minimum number of tents required is 150 members / 8 members/tent = <<150/8=18.75>>18.75 tents.

Since you cannot have a fraction of a tent, you will need to round up to the nearest whole number. This means you will need at least 19 tents to house all of the members of the Chess Club.
