Total number of seminars = n
The organizers initially accounted for 18 attendees for each seminar.
Total number of attendees = 18n
But space limitations allowed only 15 attendees per seminar. The rearrangement resulted in 4 seminars that were together attended by at least 93 attendees.
Which means (n−4) seminars had 15 attendees each.
The final equation can be formed as follows -
(Total number of attendees in (n−4) seminars) + Total number of attendees in remaining 4 seminars = Total number of attendees in n seminars where space limitations were not taken into consideration
(n−4)∗15+93=n∗18
15n−60+93=18n
18n−15n=93−60
3n=33
n=11
Hence, Answer is B
