Solution

First, we need to find out the cost per attendee. We do this by dividing the total cost by the number of attendees. In this case, it's 12/3attendees=12 / 3 attendees = 4 per attendee.

Next, we need to find out how many attendees Diana can afford with her budget of 20.Wedothisbydividinghertotalbudgetbythecostperattendee.So,20. We do this by dividing her total budget by the cost per attendee. So, 20 / $4 per attendee = 5 attendees.

Therefore, Diana can afford to have at most 5 attendees at her graduation picnic.
