a dejuicer was able to squeeze 1/5 of a pint of juice from a bag of oranges. This amount of juice filled up 1/8 of a jug. At this rate, how many bags will it take to fill the entire jug?

8 bags of oranges.
If 1 bag of oranges filled the jug 1/8 of the way, you'll need 7 more bags of oranges to equal 8/8, or a full jug. The 1/5 of a pint is unnecessary information for the question.
