Solution

The correct option is B 32
$\frac{5}{3}$ cups make one serving of potato soup.

They have potatoes for $\frac{160}{3}$ cups of soup.

Therefore, number of servings

= $\frac{160}{3}$ $\div$ $\frac{5}{3}$

= $\frac{160}{3}$ $\times$ $\frac{3}{5}$

= 32

Hence, they can make 32 servings of potato soup.
