Answer...
Steps....
1) Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
2) Multiply to remove 4 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 
= 10000
3) Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 2800575 and 10000, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 25
4) Simplify the improper fraction!

We can get the answer to this equation by solving for the variable (r).
7.4 - 9 - 2r = 18
We want to get r on one side, so we want to push everything else to the other side.
-2r = 18 - 7.4 + 9
-2r = 19.6
2r = -19.6
r = -9.8
16 because 8 rooms have 8-11, 5 rooms have 4-7, and 3 rooms have 0-3 guests.
Subtract 4, subtract 2x, then divide by -2
