Answer:

There are 268 chairs in the cafeteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of tables = 40

No. of tables with 8 chairs = 35% of 40 = 0.35*40 = 14

No. of tables with 6 chairs = 65% of 40 = 0.65*40 = 26

Total no. of chairs = (8 * 14) + (6 *26) = 112 + 156 = 268

∴ There are 268 chairs in the cafeteria.
