Question: Matt's entire family was going to spend the week at the lake house for vacation. Matt's family included his mom, dad, his older brother and his wife and their 4 kids. His Uncle Joe and his wife were also coming and would bring their 3 kids. The house only sleeps 4 people. Everyone else would sleep 2 to a tent outside. How many tents would they need?
Answer:
We need to add Matt's entire family together so 1 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 3 = 14. Only 4 people could sleep in the house so 14 - 4 = 10 people would sleep in a tent. Each tent sleeps 2 people and there were 10 people left so 10 / 2 = 5 tents were needed. The answer is 5.
