16 people. 400 minus the 150 for the boat and you have $250 left then you dive 250 by 15 to see how many people you can bring and it equals up. To 16.66 people and you can't have half a person so you round it to 16 people

Answer:

The maximum number of people who can sail is 16.

Explanation:

Tia has $ 400 to pay the boat rent. The boat rental fee is $ 150. Soon after paying the rent Tia would have a sum of money equal to $ 250 (400-150 = 250).

With the $ 250 remaining Tia will have to pay the additional for each guest. Each guest will cost aunt $ 15. To know how many guests Tia can invite you only need to divide 250 by 15. The result will be 16.6.

So Tia could invite 16 people.
