Question
At a graduation dinner, an equal number of guests were seated at each of 3 large tables, and 7 late guests were seated at a smaller table. There were 37 guests in all. If n represents the number of people seated at each of the large tables, find the equation that represents the situation.
- 3n + 7 = 37
- 7n + 3 = 37
- 37 - 7 = 3n
- 7n - 3 = 37
Hint:
finding the equation that represents the situation.
assume that;
n represents the number of people seated at each of the large tables.
The correct answer is: 3n + 7 = 37
n represents the number of people seated at each of the large tables.
Total number of guests = 37
Large tables = 3
Late guests seated at a smaller table=7
Equation is
3n + 7 = 37
