Answer 1

Number of whole servings= 29 servings

Explanation:

Trail mix quantity=Quantity per serving×number of servings

where;

Trail mix quantity=7 1/4 cups

Quantity per serving=1/4 cups

Number of servings=n

Replacing;

7 1/4=(1/4)×n

solving for n;

n=(7 1/4)÷(1/4)

n=(29/4)×4=29

Number of whole servings= 29 servings
