To find out how many servings of ice cream are in the carton, we need to divide the total amount of ice cream in the carton (1 3/4 quarts) by the amount in one serving (1/5 quart).

1 3/4 divided by 1/5 can be simplified to:

7/4 divided by 1/5
7/4 x 5/1
35/4
8 and 3/4

Therefore, there are 8 and 3/4 servings of ice cream in the carton.

The answer is E. 8 and 3/4.
