audra and tom r working in the school kitchen on soup day. their job is to make 8 liters of chicken noodle soup in a large pot. they have only small cans (0.284 liters) of soup. they will add 1 can of water for each can of soup.

a.) how many small cans of soup are needed to make 8 liters?

b.) how many students could be served if each student received 0.190 liters of the soup?

c.)small cans of soup each cost $0.97. the school sells soup at $1.00 a bowl. what is the profit on the 8 liters of soup?

d.)what assumpitions do u need to make to answer part c.)?

e.)what other costs might be involved in the sale of soup?

okkkk that took me awhile… this is only grade 7 math, but i can’t figure it out. i’m not asking u to answer it, but u can if u want, maybe if u get it (i don’t) maybe u could just tell be how to find teh answer…

thanks

btw this is a canadian textbook so all units of measurements r canadian, same goes for the prices, they r all in canadian dollars. if that matters…
