In the time required to serve 43 customers, a server breaks 2 glasses and slips 5 times. The next day, the same server breaks 10 glasses. How many customers did she serve?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In the first scenario, for 43 customers served, the server broke 2 glasses and slipped 5 times. This means for each customer served, the server broke 2/43 glasses and slipped 5/43 times. The information about breaking 10 glasses the next day is irrelevant to the number of customers served. Therefore, to find out the total number of customers served, we calculate 43 customers * (2 glasses/customer + 5 slips/customer) = 86. Choice A, 25, is incorrect as it does not consider the total number of glasses broken or slips. Choice B, 43, is incorrect because it only considers the initial number of customers. Choice D, 215, is incorrect as it miscalculates the relationship between customers, glasses broken, and slips.
