Question

a school has 294 chairs.there are 14 chairs at each table. two chairs will be removed from each table.how many chairs will be left in the cafeteria?

Answer 1

Answer:

252

Step-by-step explanation:

because there are 14 chairs at each table => there are: 294/14= 21 (tables)

two chairs will be removed from each table => the number of chairs removed are: 21.2 = 42 (chairs)

the chairs  will be left in the cafeteria are: 294 - 42 = 252( chairs)

Answer 2

294 chairs divided by 14 chairs means there are 21 tables. Since there’s actually only 12 chairs at each table, then 12 times 21 tables = 252 chairs left
