Answer:

320 cups of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total number of guests expected T = 800

Proportion of that may order soup p = 2 out of 5 = 2/5

The number of cups he should prepare should be equal to the number of guests that are expected to order soup appetizer.

Number of guests Expected to order soup appetizer n is;

n = proportion × total guest = p × T

Substituting the given values;

n = 2/5 × 800 = 320

Therefore, he should prepare 320 cups of soup.
