To find the maximum number of families that can attend, we need to divide the total number of hot dogs and hamburgers by the number of each food item required per family.
Each family requires 1 hot dog and 1 hamburger, so the total number of families that can attend is given by the minimum of the number of hot dogs divided by 1 and the number of hamburgers divided by 1.
Number of families = min(Number of hot dogs / 1, Number of hamburgers / 1)
= min(480 / 1, 320 / 1)
= min(480, 320)
= 320
Therefore, the maximum number of families that can attend is 320.
