First off, we need to find how much would a people need,by dividing the amount needed.

The equation of how much a people would need:

55÷33
=1.67 or 55/33 (it would be best to keep it in fraction to get a more precise answer)

To find out how much 2020 people need ,we would mutiply the answer above by 2020:

55/33×2020
≈3366.7
≈3367

Thus,you would have to prepare 3367 can of soup.

hope it helps!
