The right answer is Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
2/5 cup of coconut shavings covers 1/4 of a cake,
[tex]\frac{2}{5}\ coconut\ shavings=\frac{1}{4}\ of\ cake[/tex]
For one whole cake, we will multiply both sides with 4;
[tex]4*\frac{2}{5}=\frac{1}{4}*4\\\frac{8}{5} = 1\ cake[/tex]
Writing in simplified fraction form;
[tex]1\ cake = 1\frac{3}{5}\ cups[/tex]
The right answer is Option C.
