Using arithmetic and the information provided, there were 6 persons at the party.

Number of people at the party

The question is asking us to use the cost of the plates served to each person to calculate the number of people in the party from the information available in the question.

  • Normal charge of a plate of food =  $95
  • Additional charge on each plate of food = $12.75
  • Total cost of the party = $656
  • Total cost of food for each person =   $95 + $12.75 = $107.75

Number of people at the party can be obtained from; Total cost of food at the party/ Total cost of each plate of food

=  $656/ $107.75 = 6 persons
