The restaurant needs at least 761 forks.

There are currently 205 forks

Each set on sale contains 10 forks,

The number of set taht have to buy are x

Number of forks in x set are = 10x

Since, we need at least 761

So 761 should be graeter than equal to the sum of reamining forks and the new forks

i.e. 761 ≥ 10x + 205

Answer : 3. 761 ≥ 10x + 205
