anonymous · Answer

but these are my answers of choice ? 
a) 240
b) 120
c) 90
d) 60

anonymous · Answer

ok then, give me a sec to look over the prob again

anonymous · Answer

ok  i got it now, sorry i read it wrong before lol 2 batches serve 8 ok
1 batch serves 4
ok? 120/4 was right but we forgot to multiply that by 2 to get 60 we need to divide b two because 2 batches of soup is for 8 so the answer is 60 understand?
