Is the answer A? A recipe calls for 10 cups of oatmeal. Benjamin wants to make 1/5 fewer servings than the recipe makes. Which expression represents how many cups of oatmeal Benjamin should use? A. 0.8 10 B. 1.8 10 C. 0.2 10 D. 1.2 10

Your answer would be C. 1/5 = 0.2. Just multiply 10 by 0.2 and you will get 2. Benjamin only needs 2 cups of oatmeal for 1/5 of the recipe.
