Answer:

Sue can fill 72 / 10 = 7 10-fluid ounce bowls of soup.

There will be 72 - 10 * 7 = 12 fluid ounces of soup left over.

Explanation:

The can of soup shown is 32 ounces, and a full can of water is 40 fluid ounces. So, the total amount of soup that Sue made is 32 + 40 = 72 fluid ounces.

Sue can fill 72 / 10 = 7 10-fluid ounce bowls of soup.

There will be 72 - 10 * 7 = 12 fluid ounces of soup left over.
