Question

It is worked out that if 3 ladles full of soup are given to each person,
160 people can be fed.
The customers have complained in the past that the portions are too small.
The cook decides to give 5 ladles full of soup to each person.
How many people can now be fed soup?

Answer 1

Answer:

96 people

Step-by-step explanation:

160*3/5= 480/5 =96

We multiply because that gives you the total amount of soup and then you divide it by number of ladles served later which is 5.
