Do The Math

Person #1: How do you want the chairs set up?
Me (showing a diagram): 2 rows on this side of 7 & 7 and two rows on this side of 8 & 8.
Person #1: That's 28. You said you needed 30 chairs.
Me: 14 plus 16 equals 30.
Person #1: Oh.

Two hours later...
Person #2: We need to set up these chairs so it looks balanced.
Person #1: Tim said to do 7 and 7 on this side and 8 and 8 on this side.
Person #2: That's only 28.
Me: It's 30.
Person #2: Oh.

I had math snafu last month. I don't know what I was thinking but I was wayyyy off.
