Answer:

C

Explanation:

Keeping in mind 4 cups serve 6 people,

If you used 16 cups (4 cups four different times) you would be multiplying 4 by 4. So whatever you multiply the cups by, you want to multiply the servings by too. 6×4 is 24 and 1/2 cup ( which I added at the end to get rid of the fraction) 1/2 ×4 is 2. 24+2=26 servings. I hope I helped you understand better! Bye! :3
