Answer:

Number of Cups of soup to be prepared = 320.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = estimated cups of soup.

2 out of every 5 guests will order soup (given). Meaning 2 cups of soup will be ordered for every 5 guests.

This gives us a ratio of 2:5.

Total number of guests = 800 (given)

So we have the equivalent ratio. 2:5 = x:800

[tex]\frac{2}{5}=\frac{x}{800}\\ \\[/tex]

Cross multiply.

[tex]5x=2*800; 5x=1600[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{1600}{5} \\\\x=320[/tex]

Therefore, 320 cups of soup should be prepared
