41 guests / 8 plates = 5.125 packs

Since you cant buy .125 of a pack, Mary jane has to purchase 6 packs.

Answer:

<h2>6 packs</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>41 guests </u> = 5.125 packs

8 plates

5 x 8 = 40 plates

6 x 8 = 48 plates

therefore Mary Jane should buy the 6 packs more than enough for her 41 guests.
