Tables that do not seat 8

Seats at 24 in per person, fully extended:

Room size method

Each table is taken at the shortest position that seats 8 with chairs on all 4 sides. Then 32 in or 44 in is added on every side. In a long, narrow room, one long side against a wall takes less room width. Calculator set to 8 seats with one side against a wall.
