I'm having a birthday party, how many cupcakes should I make?

Ravings RabbidsRavings Rabbids
in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

There's going to be 5 people at the party.

I have 5 boxes of cupcake mix.

Each box makes 24 cupcakes.

Is that enough?  Should I make more?

I'm just genuinely curious.

    I think there must be a mis type here.  There are 5 people coming to the party and you're wondering weather or not to make 10 dozen cupcakes?

    Well 5x24= 120

     the square root of 144 is 12 so add that to the 120

    132/2= 66 - one box of cupcakes 24= 42

    42 backwards is 24

    sure 5 boxes sounds good to me

    One box per person.  I mean you want different flavors and what if people bring friends?  You can never be too prepared.

    I'm also not sure what type of bathing suit to wear on my tropical cruise next month.

    I never leave a birthday party without eating 70 cupcakes. Therefore, I think you need more.

    I've heard UnionBay has some good options. I'm not sure if they carry swimsuits, but I'm genuinely curious ...

    There's one in there that is actually a bran muffin mix, but I heard if you cover it up with icing, no one would know the difference.

    But I've never done it before, so I'm genuinely curious.

    Well there is going to be a PONY there.  A real PONY.  Zomg I am excited.  And I'm giving out signed pictures of myself when I used to model (no, seriously, I really used to, I'm not joking) as party favors!

    This is hard because it involves long division and estimatations.

    I'm thinking you should get a couple more boxes!

    Now wait, are you making regular size cupcakes or mini cupcakes, cuz that could make a difference.  If you make mini cupcakes you can trick your guests into thinking there are more therefore making 5 boxes plenty.

    Well, what if you have a guest that hates cupcakes because they'll get sand in them on the beach?

    Surely you have though of alternatives!

    Maybe it should be done by someone who has almost three college degrees.

    Oh, wait...
