Answer:

The correct answer is 31 guests attended to her party.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equation-type math problem.

<em>*</em> As we do not know the number of guests who attended Maxine's party we will call them: <em>x</em>

<em />

<em>* As she had to pay $12 per guest, the total she will pay in the bill is: </em><em>12(x)</em>

<em />

<em>*</em><em> </em><em>Due to a mistake, the restaurant discounted</em><em> $72 </em><em>from the total bill. Eventually, Maxine will pay only </em><em>$300</em><em>, so the actual total bill was for </em><em>$372</em>

<em />

<em>* It implies:</em>

<em>12(x) = 372</em>

<em>     x = 372/12</em>

<em>     x = 31</em>

<em />

That is the reason why 31 guests attended to Maxine's dinner party.

Can some one help me with 1,3,and 5
FrozenT [24]

1. 2/100 or 1/50, as 0.02 is equal to 2 hundreths. Simplifying gets you 1/50

3. 1/2 or 50/100, as 0.50 is equal to 0.5 which is equal to 50 hundreths. Simplify to get 1/2

5. 88/100 or 44/50 , as 0.88 is equal to 88 hundreths. After simplifying, you get 44/50

Depending on your teacher, you may be told to not simplify. It depends
