Answer:

3 2/3 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the total amount of strawberries and divide by the number of strawberries in a serving.

11/12÷ 1/4

Copy dot flip

11/12 * 4/1

Rewriting

11/1 * 4/12

11/1 *1/3

11/3

Changing to a mixed number

3 2/3 servings

  • Weight of strawberries=11/12pound
  • Weight of one serving=1/4pound

No of servings =Total strawberries weight/Per servings weight

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{11}{12}\div \dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{11}{12}\times \dfrac{4}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{11(4)}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{44}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{11}{3}[/tex]

  • There are total 11/3servings
