How many serving of soup does the restaurant have?

A. 2 2/5

B. 3 3/4

C. 3 3/5

D. 2 1/5

Answer 1

The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2
`(2)/(5)` liters .

Explanation:

Given as :

The quantity of large serving soup =
`(4)/(5)` liters

The total quantity of soup does restaurant has = 3 liters

Let the quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T liters

So, According to question

The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = The quantity of large serving soup × total quantity of soup does restaurant has

Or, T =
`(4)/(5)` × 3

Or, T =
`(4* 3)/(5)`

Or, T =
`(12)/(5)`

∴ T = 2
`(2)/(5)` liters

So, quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2
`(2)/(5)` liters

Hence,The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2
`(2)/(5)` liters . Answer
