Question

A restaurant chef made 1 7/8 pints of mushroom soup. Each bowl of soup holds 3/8 of a pint. How many bowls of soup will the chef be able to fill?

Answer 1

Answer:

5 bowls

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of bowls = total pints / capacity of each bowl

17/8 ÷ 3/8

Convert 1 7/8 to improper fraction = 15/8

15/8 x 8/3 = 5 bowls
