For this case we must do a conversion from pounds to grams. By definition we have to:

1 pound equals 453,592 grams.

So:


3010 lb * \frac {453.592} {1} \frac {g} {lb} = 1,365,311.92\ grams

If we divide we get the number of portions:


\frac {1,365,311.92} {28} = 48,761.14

Thus, we have approximately 48,761 servings of sugar candy.

ANswer:

48,761 servings of sugar candy.
