To find the number of calories per serving from the recipe, we need to calculate the total calories in the yogurt used and then divide that by the number of servings.

  1. First, determine the total calories from the yogurt:

    • If each container of yogurt has 150 calories and the recipe calls for 1/3 of a container, you would calculate: \[ \text{Calories from yogurt} = \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \]
  2. Then, since the recipe makes 4 servings, you would divide the total calories from the yogurt by the number of servings: \[ \text{Calories per serving} = \left(\frac{1}{3} \times 150\right) \div 4 \]

Based on this logic, the correct set of calculations is: \[ \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \div 4 \]

Thus, the correct response is: 1/3×150÷4.
