The greatest number of people that William and Debra may invite and still stay within their budget is 63.
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>
An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.
Since William and Debra have budgeted $2,500 for their reception. Therefore, their total expenses should be equal to the total expenses in the reception.
Budget = Total expenses
Budget = Reception hall Cleanup charge + $38 per person fee
Let the number of people invited to the party be represented by x,
$2,500 = $100 + $38(x)
2500 = 100 + 38x
2500 - 100 = 38x
2400 = 38x
x = 2400 / 38
x = 63.157 ≈ 63
Hence, the greatest number of people that William and Debra may invite and still stay within their budget is 63.
