Answer:

23 or more chairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 tables to start. Each tables is 450 dollars.

5x450=2250

4500-2250=2250

2250(money still need to be made) divided by 100(the price of a chair)=22.5

Since you can't have a half of a chair but you cant have any less, you round it up to 23 chairs. The answer is 23 or more chairs.
