4 batches times 16 = 64 ounces /8 = 8 cups 8 oz in one cup
4 batches Times 3 pints = 12 pints times 2 cups per pint =24 cups
8 + 24 cups= 32 cups

Answer: There are 32 servings that he make all together.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of fluid ounces of lemon juice = 16

Number of pints of orange juice = 3

1 pint = 16 fluid ounces

3 pints = 16 Ă— 3 = 48 fluid ounces

So, Total fluid ounces = 48 +16 = 64 fluid ounces

if each serving is 1 cup.

So, it becomes,

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

So, 1 fluid ounces =
(1)/(8)\ cups

64 fluid ounces =
(64)/(8)\ cups=8\ cups

Number of batches of punch = 4

So, Total number of servings he make all together would be


8* 4\\\\=32

Hence, there are 32 servings that he make all together.
