Final answer:

To serve \[tex]\(rac{5}{8}\\)[/tex] of an apple to each person at the meeting, Jim needs 8 apples in total.


Explanation:

To serve \[tex]\(rac{5}{8}\\)[/tex] of an apple to each person at the meeting, Jim needs to ensure that each person gets an equal portion of the apple.

In this case, \[tex]\(rac{5}{8}\\)[/tex] of an apple is equivalent to \[tex]\(rac{5}{8}\\)[/tex] parts out of 8 parts of a whole apple. Therefore, Jim would need 8 apples to serve everyone at the meeting.
