Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance wants everyone to have 1 hot dog at each of 2 meals, then each person will get 2 hot dogs.

There are 125 people attending the reunion. Thus, Lance needs

[tex]125\cdot 2=250[/tex] hotdogs.

The hot dogs come in packages of 8. Divide the number of needed hotdogs by the number of hotdogs in package to get the number of packeges needed:

[tex]250:8=31\ r2.[/tex]

Then Lance should buy 32 packages
