DaisyProblem 1 Robert is in charge of setting up the tables for the Thanksgiving dinner this year. Each table seats four on each side and one on each end of the table. Robert wants to push the tables together to form one long table for the feast. If there are 63 people coming to join the feast, how many tables will Robert need for all of his friends? Don't forget to explain your answer!!!!!

You need 6 tables,because if you use 5 tables only 59 people can be there,so if you use 6 it'll be 57 but still even if there are 2 chairs left over you dont have to use them you can leave them emty and you cant leave anybody out that will be rude,I got my answer by multipling 8 and 5 and got 40 and added 9 and it was 59 and then I tried 7 and got 56 then added 9 and got 65 but you dont need to use them thats how i got my answer.
