A large cake from a bakery will serve 60 people. If there are 832 people expected at reception, how many cakes are needed?



Answer :

well first you have to divide 832 by 60 which is 13.8666 since there is a reminder you will need 14 cakes
You would need 14 cakes. This is because 832/60=13.866667. But you have to round up to the nearest whole number because you can't make 13.866667 cakes.
