Answer 1

To determine how many invitations each person has to take to the post office, first, we need to know the total number of people mailing the invitations.

There are:

• Susan
• Benjamin
• 3 members of the bridal party

This gives us a total of: 1 (Susan) + 1 (Benjamin) + 3 (members) = 5 people

Next, we divide the total number of invitations (225) by the number of people (5) to see how many invitations each person needs to take:

225 invitations ÷ 5 people = 45 invitations per person.

So, each person has to take 45 invitations to the post office.

The correct answer is 45.
