Answer:

She should buy 7 cans of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the cans of soup over the people.

24 cans           x cans

-------------- = --------------

96 people       28 people

Cross multiple

24*28 = 96*x

672=96x

Divide by 96 on each side

672/96 =96x/96

7=x

She should buy 7 cans of soup
