Answer:

8

Explanation:

after seating 35 guests in 7 tables (5 guests per table), she will have 1 guest left
so she will require 8 tables in total to allow every guest a seat.
any number of tables below 8 is likely to result in guests unable to have a seat

note: if this is NOT a trick question, this answer might be sufficient

hope it helps
