Answer:

The correct answer is 8 servings of pancakes.

Explanation:

If each serving of pancakes calls for 1/4 cup of flour, to find how many servings can be made with 2 cups of flour, we should divide 2 cups by 1/4 cup.

To do this, we can first convert 1/4 to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

1/4 = 0.25

Next, we can go ahead with the division.

2 / 0.25 = 8

Therefore, 8 servings of pancakes can be made with 2 cups of flour.

Hope this helps!
