Answer:

Number of guests = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total apples David cut = 5

Total apples left over = 2

Total apples David gave his guest = Total apples David cut - Total apples left over

= 5 - 2

= 3

Total apples David gave his guest = 3

Each guest gets = 3/8 of an apple

Number of guests = Total apples David gave his guest ÷ share of each guest

Number of guests = 3 ÷ 3/8

= 3 × 8/3

= 8

Number of guests = 8
