Answer 1

Answer: 300

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Mr Gaines is catering his company picnic and that he will pay $18.45 for 3 people to eat the barbecue lunch. This means each person spends:

= $18.45/3

With a budget of $1850.00, the number of people that he'll be able to feed will be:

= $1850/$6.15

= $300 people
