Answer:

8 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of cups of pudding = [tex]2\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The number of cups for each serving = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the total number of serving

[tex]=\frac{\text{Total cups}}{\text{Number of cups in each serving}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{2\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{15}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=7.5[/tex]

[tex]\approx 8[/tex]
