We are planning a reception for our daughter. The hall that we are renting charges a $50 cleanup fee. In addition to the cleanup fee, they charge $33 per guest for food and drinks.

If we have $3,300.00 available, what is the maximum number of guest we can invite without going over our budget?

Answer:

98 guests

Explanation:

First, you would take the amount of money available, $3,300.00, and subtract the cleanup fee ($50) from that.

You would get $3,250

Next, you divide $3,250 by the amount of money per guest ($33).

Your total is 98.48 repeated

That rounds to 98 people, since you can't go over.

Hope this helps you!

98 guests cause then you’d have money left over for the cleaning fee and the guests fee would leave enough money to not spend all the amount of money
