Which strategies can be used to solve this problem?

Kathleen invited 28 people to her party. She plans to seat 8 people at the dining room table. She will put the rest at round tables with 4 people at each table.

What is the fewest number of round tables that Kathleen needs so that each guest will have a seat?

Choose all answers that are correct

So 8 of the 28 will seat at the dining room table, leaving 20 for the round tables.

Each will seat 4, so you need 5 round tables.

ok thanks

To find the fewest number of round tables needed, we need to divide the total number of remaining guests (after seating 8 people at the dining room table) by the number of people who can sit at each round table (4 people).

1. Divide the total number of remaining guests by the number of people who can sit at each round table:

Remaining guests = Total guests - Guests seated at dining room table
Remaining guests = 28 - 8
Remaining guests = 20

Number of round tables needed = Remaining guests / Number of people per round table
Number of round tables needed = 20 / 4
Number of round tables needed = 5

Therefore, Kathleen needs 5 round tables so that each guest will have a seat.

So, the correct answer is:
- 5
