D. 6

The total cost for 2 hours is $500. Each additional hour costs $50. Since Cindy doesn't want to spend more than $700, the maximum number of additional hours she can rent the photo booth for is (700 - 500) / 50 = 4 hours. Therefore, she can rent the photo booth for a total of 2 + 4 = 6 hours.
IT'S WRONG
Let's reevaluate the solution:

The initial 2 hours cost $500, so there is $200 left for additional hours ($700 - $500 = $200).

Since each additional hour costs $50, Cindy can rent the photo booth for an additional 200 / 50 = 4 hours beyond the initial 2 hours.

So, the maximum number of additional hours Cindy can rent the photo booth for her party is 4.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 4.
