25 guests is 2.5 times more than 10
Multiply each order by 2.5
Chicken = 16 x 2.5 = 40
Lasagna = 7 x 2.5 = 17.5 , round to 18
Deli meat = 1.8 x 2.5 = 4.5, round to 5
Sliced cheese = 15 x 2.5 = 37.5, round to 38
Buns = 1 x 2.5 = 2.5, round to 3

Step-by-step explanation:
We have 40 guests in total out of which 15 guests after drop-in guests so they would not be consuming the same amount of food as the other 25 guests would be having.
Furthermore, 25 visitors are 2.5 times greater than 10.
16 x 2.5 = 40 chickens
Lasagna = 7 x 2.5 = 17.5 (rounded to 18)
Deli meat = 1.8 x 2.5 = 4.5, multiplied by 5
15 x 2.5 = 37.5, round to 38 oz. sliced cheese
1 × 2.5 = 2.5 buns, round to 3
2 × 2.5 = 5 potato salad
Divide each order by 2.5.
This is the list which can be recommended.
