Answer:

We can get 15 (1/3 cup) servings with a 5 cup container

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can easily divide 5 by (1/3) to find how many servings can be obtained

5 / (1/3)

= 5 / (0.3333)

= 15

This can be checked by adding together (1/3) fifteen times

(1/3) + (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)

= 15/3 = 5
