Answer:

2 31/32   cups used

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 4 3/8 cups cherries

Change this to an improper fraction

4 3/8 = (8*4+3)/8 = 38/8

We use 5/8 of the cherries

38/8 *5/8

190/64

Change this back to a mixed number

64 goes into 190 2 times

190 - 128 =62  left over

2 62/64

2 31/32   cups used
