Answer:

D. Five pounds of oats are divided equally among eight horses.

Step-by-step explanation:

A scenario representing 5/8 has to involve a quantity of 5 being divided by 8.

The situation with the oats and horses represents 5/8, because the 5 pounds of oats are being equally divided among the 8 horses.

The other answer choices are incorrect because they are dividing 8 by 5 instead, which is 8/5 instead of 5/8.

So, the correct answer is D. Five pounds of oats are divided equally among eight horses.
