Respuesta :

Answer:

Number of people that can be served 7 ladles = 100 people

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that;

Initial number of ladles proposed per person = 5

Number of persons to be fed based on 5 ladles = 140 persons

Thus, amount of ladles based on that data is;

140 people x 5 ladle/1 person = 700 ladles full of soup

Now, since the cook decides to give 7 ladles full of soup to each person, the number of people that can be fed will now be;

700 ladles ÷ 7 ladles/person = 100 persons
