HELPP NEEDED ASAP PLEASE. There are 20n members in the Trumpington marching band, and when they line up in rows of 26, there are 4 band members left over. If n is an integer and there are fewer than 1000 band members, what is the maximum number of people that could be in the Trumpington marching band?

The maximum number of people that can be in the Trumpington marching band is 940 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of members = 20·n

The number per row = 26

The number left = 4

Therefore, we have;

If there are x rows of 26, we have;

26 × x = 20·n - 4

We have;

26 × x < 996

26 × x < 20·n

20·n < 996 therefore, 20·n ≤ 980

We check that 980/26 = 37  and some fractions

26 × 37 = 962 which will leave a remainder of 2

Therefore, we note that for 26 to have a remainder of 4, the last digit of the factor x must be 6 so has to get the last digit of the product 26 × x to be 6 while the digit of the product 20×n  is 0 which will live 4 members out to get to the next 10 as follows;

26 × 36 = 936 while 20 × 47 = 940

We get 940 - 936 = 4 members

Therefore, the maximum number of people that can be in the Trumpington marching band = 940.

it would rotate about 180 degrees.
