The answer is 640 ft².
Mr. Klampett estimates 8 ft²<span> of storage space per individual will be required to meet the needs of 12 people. So, for 12 people, the storage space is:
</span>8 ft² * 12 = 96 ft²
If the storage space of 96 ft² is 15% of the total amount of space required, x will be 100%:
96 ft² : 15% = x : 100%
x = 96 ft² * 100% : 15%
x = 640 ft²
This might help some this is mine from a little bit age =^-^=
Let x = # of original members
Cost per person (originally) = 832/x
Cost per person after 6 more people = 832/(x+6)
Solve 832/x=832/(x+6) +6 (because the cost was reduced by 6
Solve for x.
x = 26 or -32 (but x is number of members, so it can't be negative)
# of original members is 26.
Original cost is 832/26 = $32 per person.
It helps to use your factor pairs
