A can contains 11/12 pound of vegetables. One serving of these vegetables weighs 1/2 pound. What is the total number of servings of vegetables in the can?

11/12 is less than one.

Two servings would be 1/2 + 1/2 pounds, so exactly one pound.

It means that there is only one serving in a can, because there is not enough reminder for a second service
