78 napkins ÷ 4 people per table = 19 tables remainder 2 napkins.
A table needs 4 napkins and we only have 2. This means that we will need 2 more napkins in order to complete one more table.

Answer:

Jonah needs 2 more napkins to complete one more table.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Jonah’s restaurant, each table seats 4 people.

In total Jonah has 78 napkins to place at the tables.

So the total number of napkins must be a multiple of 4.

But unfortunately 78 is not a multiple of 4. It leaves a remainder of 2 while divided by 4.

So, the number which is 2 more than 78 will be a multiple of 4 and will complete the set of tables i.e 80

Therefore, Jonah needs 2 more napkins to complete one more table.
