A local restaurant is offering an 8 piece fried chicken bucket and 2 sides for $12.00 that will feed 6 people. If Monty was having a family reunion for 36 family members, how much will it cost him to buy enough chicken and sides to feed everyone one serving? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
Monty needs to feed 36 family members and each chicken / meal combo feeds 6 people so he needs 36 / 6 = 6 combos. Each chicken / meal combo costs $12.00 and he needs 6 so it will cost him 12 * 6 = $72.00 to feed everyone.
Therefore, the answer is 72.
