Question

A host has arranged 2 bowls of soup for every three
guests, one bowl of main dish for every four guests,
and a bowl of dessert for every five guests. There are
134 bowls of food at the party. Find the number of
guests at the party.​

Answer 1

Answer:

i think its 1,608

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to multiply 134 by the number of guests in each bowls

134×3= 402

134×4= 536

134×5= 670

then,we have to add all of the product

402+536+670=1,608

we still have to make sure if the answer is right so i divided 1,608 by 12. i got 12 from the sum of the three guests four guests and five guests.

1,608÷12=134

therefore, the number of guests in the party is 1,608.
