Answer:

3 1/3 servings

Explanation:

2 can make 2 servings but leaves 2/4. so you have 2 servings and 1 cup of juice left. That 1 cup then makes a serving but leaves you with 1/4 cup of juice. Now you have 3 servings and 1/4 cup of juice which is 1/3 of a serving. So in all your left with 3 1/3 servings. I hope this makes sense its how I figured it out :)
