Solution

The correct option is A 50
Given,
Number of peoples attending a conference = 482
Number of peoples can be seated at each table = 11

Number of tables needed = $\frac{482}{11}$
482 can be rounded to 500.
11 can be rounded to 10.
$∴$ 482 $\div$ 11 = 500 $\div$ 10Therefore, the conference need about 50 tables.
