Answer is 86 tables because 1,022 guests divided by 12 is about 85.16 tables, but you have to round up since you can have a half of table or less. That is why 86 tables are needed

Answer:

86

Explanation:

If you did 1,022 divided by 12, you would get something crazy like 85.16666666666. So round up.
