Answer:

a) 4 people ordered streak dinner

b) 3 people ordered chicken dinner

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of people that ordered steak dinner be x

and the number of people that ordered chicken dinner be y

From the question,

There are 7 people in your family

Hence, we can write that

x + y = 7 ...... (1)

Also from the question

Some order the chicken dinner for $13 and some order the steak dinner for $18 and the total bill was $111.

We can then write that

13y + 18x = 111 ...... (2)

From equation (1)

x + y = 7

Then,

x = 7 - y ...... (3)

Put this into equation (2)

13y + 18x = 111

13y + 18(7 - y) = 111

13y + 126 - 18y = 111

-5y = -15

5y = 15

y = 15 / 5

y = 3

Put the value of y into equation (3) to get x

x = 7 - y

Then

x = 7 - 3

x = 4

Hence, 4 people ordered streak dinner

and 3 people ordered chicken dinner

a) 4 people ordered streak dinner

b) 3 people ordered chicken dinner

Well I don't know ! 
Let's take a look and see:

The idea is that there could be more than one way
for a roll of the dice to land with the same number.  

-- If the sum is from 1-4, you get the point.
There are  6  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 1-4.

-- If the sum is from 5-8, Adam gets the point.
There are  20  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 5-8.

-- If the sum is 9-12, Lana gets the point.
There are  10  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 9-12.

-- The game is not fair to all three of you.
-- Lana has a distinct advantage over you.
-- Adam has a big advantage over Lana.
-- Adam has an even bigger advantage over you.
-- You are at a big disadvantage.  (Notice that one of your
numbers ... 1 ... can never come up unless one of the dice
falls off of the table.)
