Respuesta :

1/2 1/2 1/2 1/3
[tex]1 \times 2 = 3[/tex]

Answer:

67 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Total # of lbs divided by # of lbs per serving = # of servings

22 1/2 / 1/3

22 1/2 = (22*2+1)/2 = 45/2

To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal (flipped)

45/2 * 3/1 = 135/2 = 67 1/2

It asks for whole servings, and 1/2 is not part of whole.
