<h3>
Answer: B) 6 servings </h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
5 & 1/3 is the mixed number with 5 as the whole part and 1/3 as the fractional part
Let's convert to an improper fraction
5 & 1/3 = 5 + 1/3
5 & 1/3 = 5*(3/3) + 1/3
5 & 1/3 = 15/3 + 1/3
5 & 1/3 = (15+1)/3
5 & 1/3 = 16/13
The mixed number 5 & 1/3 is equivalent to the improper fraction 16/3
-------------------
Each serving is 7/8 cup
x of these servings is (7/8)x
x is the number of servings in a full container, so
(7/8)x = 16/3
x = (16/3)*(8/7)
x = (16*8)/(3*7)
x = 128/21
x = 6.0952 approximately
x = 6 when rounding to the nearest whole number
So the container is about 6 servings.
