Mr. Webster rents some tables for $362 and some chairs for $3 each for a party. He spends $500 in total. How many chairs did Mr. Webster rent?(Just put the number i.e. 35)
In total, he spent $500. We know he spent 362 on tables, so we subtract that by 500. This gives us 138 dollars that he spent on chairs. Sense every chair is $3, divide 138/3 to give you 46.
