B.
Use logical reasoning.
Start with 28 people, subtract 8 people who will sit at the dining room table, that leaves 20 people. Keep subtracting 4 people until you get to 0. Count how many times you subtracted 4 people.

C.
Translate into an equation.
28 – 8 + 4 + 4 = t

D.
Work backward.
There are 28 people coming to the party. There is one dining table, so subtract 1. Now figure out how many round tables there are and subtract that number.

Respuesta :

I think d but I'm not shire but it sounds right just subtract that number and then add the rest and the four tables by four people at the table so that's what I think
ok so seat 8 at dining table
seat rest at round tables that can seat 4

we know hw many dining tables we have (1) but we don't know how many round tables we have, so subtract

total-number siting at dining table=number sitting at round tables
28-8=20=numbers sittin at round tables

20 sitting at round tables
then find how many tables
20-4-4-4-4-4=0
5 times so 5 tables


ok so what you should do is

answer is B
