Let's solve the problem step-by-step.
First, we need to know the conversion factor from quarts to cups. It is given that 1 quart equals 4 cups.
We have 10 quarts of milk. To convert this to cups:
[tex]\[
10 \, \text{quarts} \times 4 \, \text{cups/quart} = 40 \, \text{cups}
\][/tex]
This is the total amount of milk in cups.
Next, we need to determine how many cups of milk are used per bowl of chocolate pudding. We know the total amount of milk is used to make 8 bowls of pudding. Therefore, we divide the total cups of milk by the number of bowls:
[tex]\[
\frac{40 \, \text{cups}}{8 \, \text{bowls}} = 5 \, \text{cups/bowl}
\][/tex]
So, each bowl of chocolate pudding contains 5 cups of milk.
The correct answer is:
5 cups
