Answer:

Take the total pound and divide it with the serving size.

I converted the 8 \frac{1}{3}831 into an improper fraction which becomes \frac{25}{3}325

Divide \frac{25}{3}325 ÷ \frac{1}{3}31 which becomes:

\frac{25}{3}325 × \frac{3}{1}13 = \frac{75}{3}375 which simplifies to 25.

So there are 25 servings.

Take the total pound and divide it with the serving size.
I converted the
8 (1)/(3) into an improper fraction which becomes
(25)/(3)
Divide
(25)/(3) ÷
(1)/(3) which becomes:

(25)/(3) ×
(3)/(1) =
(75)/(3) which simplifies to 25.

So there are 25 servings.
