Dear Student,
◆ Answer -
90 guests
● Explanation -
Let x be total no of guests who attended the party.
No two guests gave two things.
Guests bringing bouquets = x/3
Guests bringing gift items = x/5
Guests bringing cash gifts = x/6
Guests bringing gift vouchers = 27
So now, total guests are calculated as -
x = x/3 + x/5 + x/6 + 27
x = 10x/30 + 6x/30 + 5x/30 + 27
x = 21x/30 + 27
x - 7x/10 = 27
3x/10 = 27
x = 27 × 10/3
x = 90 guests
Therefore, 90 people attended the party.
Thanks dear. Hope this helps you..
