320

Step-by-step explanation:

if out of every 5 guests 2 people will order the soup that is equivalent to the fraction:

2/5

then you need to find the equivalent fraction of 2/5 with a denominator of 800 so you would set up your proportion:

2/5=x/800

then you would multiply and get:

16,000/5

and that would equal 320

Answer:320
