Question

Susan and Benjamin are getting married. They ordered 225 invitations. Three members of the bridal party agreed to help them mail the invitations. With Susan, Benjamin, and the three members of the bridal party all mailing invitations, how many invitations does each person have to take to the post office?

Answer 1

so what is it

Answer 2

There are 2 people getting married + 3 members of the bridal party = <<2+3=5>>5 people mailing invitations.
If they each take an equal number of invitations, they will each need to mail 225 invitations / 5 people = <<225/5=45>>45 invitations per person. Answer: \boxed{45}.
