There are 153 people who each ate 1/4 pounds. Therefore, the amount of watermelon eaten is 153/4 pounds.
The amount of watermelon served is
8 \frac{1}{4}  + 9 \frac{1}{4}  + 8 \frac{7}{8}  + 9 \frac{5}{8}  + 10 \frac{3}{4}
=  \frac{8 \times 4 + 1}{4}  +  \frac{9 \times 4 + 1}{4}  \\  +  \frac{8 \times 8 + 7}{8}  +  \frac{9 \times 8 + 5}{8} \\  +  \frac{10 \times 4 + 3}{4}
=  \frac{33}{4}  +  \frac{37}{4}  +  \frac{71}{8}  +  \frac{77}{8}  +  \frac{43}{4}  \\  =  \frac{33 \times 2}{4 \times 2}  +  \frac{37 \times 2}{4 \times 2}  +  \frac{71}{8}  \\  +  \frac{77}{8}  +  \frac{43 \times 2}{4 \times 2}
=  \frac{66 + 74 + 71 + 77 + 86}{8}
=  \frac{374}{8}  =  \frac{186}{4}
There is 186/4 total watermelon. Minus the 153/4 that was eaten,
\frac{186 - 153}{4}  =  \frac{33}{4}  = 8 \frac{1}{4}

The leftover watermelon is 8 & 1/4 pounds.
