Mary prepared 40 pineapple fruit yogurt cups to sell at a school fair. She sold 5/8

Question

of the cups. How many cups did Mary sell? (1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how many yogurt cups Mary sold, you can calculate \( \frac{5}{8} \) of 40 cups.

First, multiply 40 by \( \frac{5}{8} \):

\[ \text{Cups sold} = 40 \times \frac{5}{8} \]

Calculating this step-by-step:

1. \( 40 \div 8 = 5 \)
2. \( 5 \times 5 = 25 \)

So, Mary sold 25 yogurt cups.
