Multiply the number of kids by the number of cups for each kid. This is 26 times 1/2.
[tex]26\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{26}{2}=13[/tex]It means 13 cups are needed to give each of the 26 kids 1/2 of a cup of chocolate.
Mr. Rivera does not have enough hot chocolate to give 26 kids 1/2 of a cup of chocolate.
