43(3)/(4) cups of cheese is needed to make 10 pizzas.

Step-by-step explanation

For making one pizza, amount of cheese needed =
4(3)/(8) cups =
(35)/(8) cups.

Now for finding the total amount of cheese needed to make 10 pizzas, we need to multiply
(35)/(8) cups by 10.

So,
((35)/(8)*10)cups= (350)/(8)cups= (175)/(4)cups= 43(3)/(4) cups

Thus,
43(3)/(4) cups of cheese is needed to make 10 pizzas.
