To find out how many cupcakes JoJo decorates, we need to solve the equation:

8 = (1/3) * JoJo's cupcakes + 2

Subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:

6 = (1/3) * JoJo's cupcakes

To isolate JoJo's cupcakes, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3:

18 = JoJo's cupcakes

Therefore, JoJo decorates 18 cupcakes.

The correct answer is a. 18.
