Answer 2

number of servings = 5 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that each serving is 3/10 of a pint. To know the number of servings of 1.5 pints, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:

1 serving ....................> 3/10 pint

?? servings ................> 1.5 pints

number of servings = (1.5*1) / (3/10)

number of servings = 5 servings

Hope this helps :)
