One serving of rice is 2/3 of a cup. I ate 1 cup of rice. How many servings of rice did I eat?

We have an equality between the servings and the amount of rice:

1 serving = 2/3 cups

Then, if you have 1 cup, we can calculate the amount of servings as:


1\text{ cup}\cdot\frac{1\text{ serving}}{(2)/(3)\text{ cups}}=(3)/(2)\text{ servings}

You eat 3/2 servings.
