17 tables will have 5 chairs each.
Solución
1. Carl has a total of \(86\) chairs, and he sets up tables such that each table has \(5\) chairs.
2. To determine the number of tables that can have all \(5\) chairs, we divide the total number of chairs by \(5\):
\[
\frac{86}{5} = 17 \text{ with a remainder of } 1.
\]
3. This means \(17\) tables receive \(5\) chairs each, and there is \(1\) extra chair set aside.
Thus, the number of tables that will have \(5\) chairs is \(17\).
The correct answer is \(\textbf{17 tables}\).

To find out how many tables Carl can set up, we need to divide the total number of chairs (86) by the number of chairs per table (5). So, 86 divided by 5 equals 17 with a remainder. This means Carl can set up 17 tables with 5 chairs each, which uses up 85 chairs, leaving 1 chair set aside. Therefore, the answer is (B) 17 tables. If you ever find yourself dealing with similar problems, remember that division and remainders are your best friends. Always double-check your math by multiplying the number of tables by the chairs per table to ensure you didn’t lose any chairs along the way!
