Each day, Maya eats 1/5 cup of melons in the morning and 1/5 cup of melons in the afternoon. How many days will it take Maya to eat 8 cups of melons?

A 19

B 20

C 18

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maya eats 1/5 cups of melon twice a day: once in the morn n once in the afternoon, she eats 2/5 cups of melon a day.

8=2/5*d

d=# of days

8*5=2d

40/2=d

d=20

∴ Therefore it will take 20 days for Maya to eat 8 cups of melon.
