First find how many chairs Jackson needs for the four - seat tables by multiplying the number of four - seat tables by 4: 4 chairs / table * 6 tables = 24 chairs. Next find how many chairs Jackson needs for the six - seat tables by multiplying the number of six - seat tables by 6: 6 chairs / table * 12 tables = 72 chairs. Now add the number of chairs for the four - and six - seat tables to find the total number of chairs Jackson needs: 24 chairs + 72 chairs = 96 chairs.
Thus, the answer is 96.
