In word problems, you can be pretty sure that "of" means times.
1/2 of 6 is the same as 1/2 * 6 = 3
So, can you multiply 1/0 by 200?
I think Steve meant 1/10 by 200.
To find out how many tables were reserved at The Eatery Restaurant, we need to calculate 1/10 of the total number of tables, which is 200.
To calculate 1/10 of a number, you divide that number by 10. So, 200 divided by 10 equals 20.
Therefore, 20 tables were reserved at The Eatery Restaurant on that recent evening.
