Bridgette and Alex are getting married. Bridgette is inviting 84 guests, and Alex is inviting two thirds of that number of guests. They hired a caterer to make a plated meal for each guest at the wedding reception. The caterer always makes ten extra plates just in case something goes wrong. Each plate of steak and asparagus in garlic butter will have 8 asparagus spears on it. How many asparagus spears will the caterer need in all?
Alex is inviting 84 * 2 / 3 = <<84*2/3=56>>56 guests.
Bridgette and Alex’s guests will need 84 + 56 = <<84+56=140>>140 plates.
The caterer makes 10 extra plates, so they will need 140 + 10 = <<140+10=150>>150 plates.
To put 8 asparagus spears on each plate, the caterer will need 150 * 8 = <<150*8=1200>>1200 asparagus spears.
