The answers are 15 guests, 7 tables, 24 guests, and 10 tables respectively.
Explanation:
- Step 1: Find relation between the number of tables and guests. Given that for every 6 guests, Maya uses 2 tables.
2 tables ⇒ 6 guests
1 table ⇒ 6/2 = 3 guests
- Step 2: Find number of guests for 5 tables.
5 tables = 5 × 3 = 15 guests
- Step 3: Find number of tables for 21 guests.
Number of tables = 21/3 = 7 tables
- Step 4: Find number of guests for 8 tables.
Number of guests = 8 × 3 = 24 guests
- Step 5: Find number of tables for 30 guests.
Number of tables = 30/3 = 10 tables
