QUESTION: 300

Monica planned her birthday party. She prepared 5 muffins for each of her guests and kept aside two additional muffins in case someone will want extra. After the party, it turned out that one of the guests didn’t come but every one of the guests that did come ate six muffins and 3 muffins remained. How many guests did Monica plan on?

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

X is the number of guests that were supposed to show up at the party, and so Monica prepared 5X + 2 muffins. (X – 1) is the number of guests that did come to the party and the total number of muffins is 6(X – 1) + 3. The number of muffins that Monica prepared is equal to the total number of muffins and so we can compare the following expressions: 5X + 2 = 6(X – 1) +3 >X = 5.
