Question

James and Bethany Morrison are celebrating their 10th anniversary by having a reception at a local reception hall. They have budgeted $2500 for their reception. If the reception hall charges a $80 clean up fee plus $35 per person, find the greatest number of people that they may invite and still stay within their budget.

Answer 1

So I got 69 people at most to stay within budget. If you subtract the $80 fee from the original $2500 you get $2420. Then I just divided it by 35 to see how many people will be able to go.
