Question

Given that the deli ends up using 110 slices of bread, how many people are going to the company picnic from the previous problem?

a) 25
b) 30
c) 35
d) 40

Answer 1

To find out how many people are going to the company picnic, divide the given 110 slices of bread by 2, since each sandwich requires 2 slices of bread. The number of sandwiches made will represent the number of people going to the picnic.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many people are going to the company picnic, we need to determine the number of sandwiches made using the given 110 slices of bread. From the previous problem, we know that 1 sandwich requires 2 slices of bread. Therefore, dividing 110 by 2, we find that 55 sandwiches can be made.

Since each sandwich represents one person going to the picnic, the number of people going to the picnic is 55.
