Question

Each table in the cafeteria can seat 10 students.how many tables are needed to seat 40 students

Answer 1

Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to divide the total amount of tables by the amount of students:

40 / 10 = 4

So, we need 4 tables to seat 40 students. 

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey there!

Each table in the can seat 10 students, divide 40 and 10 to see how many tables can seat 40 students . . .

x = the amount of tables needed

40 divided by 10 = 4

10 x 4 = 40

x = 4 <--------

To fit 40 students, 4 tables are needed.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
