Answer 2

Answer:

Susan makes 5 fruit cups

each fruit cup has 5 strawberries and 3 kiwis

so the number of strawberries used is - 5 x 5 = 25 strawberries

and the number of kiwis used - 5 x 3 = 15 kiwis

so the total number of fruits - 25 + 15 = 40 fruits

Joanna uses 40 fruits to make 4 fruit cups

each cup she uses 8 strawberries

therefore total number of strawberries she uses - 8x 4 = 32 strawberries

she has 40 fruits in total and 32 of those are strawberries

the rest are kiwis

number of kiwis = 40 -32 = 8

8 kiwis are there and she has to make 4 cups

so for each cup number of kiwis = 8 / 4 = 2

so each cup has 2 kiwis
