Answer:

2/15 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

IF a basket contains 15/16 pound of oranges, then;

1 servings= 15/16 pounds of oranges

To get the number of servings for 1/8 pounds

x servings = 1/8 pounds

Divide both expressions

1/x = (15/16)/(1/8)

1/x = 15/16 * 8/1

1/x = 15/2

x = 2/15

Hence there will be 2/15 servings of oranges
