    A non-profit organization is having a couple’s banquet for a fundraiser. The banquet hall will only hold 250 people. The President, Vice-President, two volunteers, and a guest speaker will be working the event. How many couples will be able to attend the banquet?

    We subtract the 5 people working the event to get:
    250 - 5 = 245

    A couple is 2 people, so we have 245/2 = 122.5
    We round down to 122 couples.
