Mary is having a birthday party. She bought two dozen paper plates. This will allow each person at the party to have two plates - one for hot dogs and chips, and one for ice cream and cake - and leave 2 extra plates. Besides her brother and sister, how many friends will Mary have at her party?
Answer:
8..........24 plates less 6 for Mary and her brother and sister and the two extras = 16.
