Question

Amy is having her birthday party at a skating rink. The rink charges $50 plus $8 per person. If Amy wants to spend at most $200, how many people can she invite? (Hint: make sure you include Amy in the head count.)

Answer 1

Answer: 18 people including herself

Step-by-step explanation: Take $200-$50=$150

now divide 150 by 8 which is 18.75 you obviously can't round up so you round down to just 18 and thats your answer. she can have 18 people there including herself

Answer 2

18

Explanation:

Amy can invite 18 people (including herself). $200-$50=$150. $150÷8=18.75. You can't have 18.75 people so you round it down to 18. Hope this helps!
