Question

A band is paid $50 for performing at a restaurant. For each customer that eats at the restaurant, the band is paid $2. If the band made $142 in one night, how many customers ate at the

restaurant?

Answer 1

There were 46 customers who ate at the restaurant.

Explanation:

First we need to subtract the total by how much the ban was paid to perform.

$142 - $50 = $92

$92 ÷ 46 = $2
