Parents spend an estimated $200 at the fair every year, and the fair typically wants to reach a goal of bringing profits at $150,000. To achieve that goal, how many parents need to be attending the fair for the 5 days it is open? The amount of parents need to be rounded to whole numbers.  Pick.
A) 130 people per day B) 145 people per day C) 200 people per day D) 175 people per day E) 150 people per day
To find out our answer, we must think about how much the fair could make in the time allotted.   So, we divide 150,000 by 5 to get 30,000   We then divide 30,000 by 200 to get our answer.   This is possible since we are following rules of division for 5 and 200.   Correct Option: 150 people per day
