To determine how many cups of chocolate chips are needed for 28 servings, we first find the number of cups required per serving.

The recipe specifies that ¼ cup of chocolate chips serves 4 servings. Therefore, we can calculate the amount of chocolate chips needed for 1 serving:

\[
\text{Chocolate chips per serving} = \frac{1/4 \text{ cup}}{4} = \frac{1}{16} \text{ cup}
\]

Next, we multiply the amount needed for one serving by 28 to find the total amount needed for 28 servings:

\[
\text{Chocolate chips for 28 servings} = 28 \times \frac{1}{16} \text{ cup}
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
28 \times \frac{1}{16} = \frac{28}{16} = \frac{7}{4} \text{ cups}
\]

Converting \( \frac{7}{4} \) cups into a mixed number gives:

\[
\frac{7}{4} = 1 \frac{3}{4} \text{ cups}
\]

Thus, the total amount of chocolate chips needed for 28 servings is:

\[
\boxed{1 \frac{3}{4}} \text{ cups}
\]

To calculate how many cups of chocolate chips are needed for 28 servings, we can follow these steps:

1. The recipe calls for ¼ cup of chocolate chips for 4 servings.
2. To find the amount needed for 1 serving, divide ¼ cup by 4:

\[
\frac{1}{4} \div 4 = \frac{1}{16} \text{ cup per serving}
\]

3. Now, multiply the amount needed for 1 serving by the number of servings (28):

\[
\frac{1}{16} \times 28 = \frac{28}{16} = \frac{7}{4} \text{ cups}
\]

4. Converting \( \frac{7}{4} \) cups to a mixed number gives:

\[
\frac{7}{4} = 1 \frac{3}{4} \text{ cups}
\]

Therefore, the total amount of chocolate chips needed for 28 servings is:

\[
\boxed{1 \frac{3}{4}} \text{ cups}
\]

To determine how many cups of chocolate chips are needed for 28 servings, we start with the information that the recipe calls for ¼ cup of chocolate chips for 4 servings.

1. **Calculate chocolate chips per serving**:

\[
\text{Chocolate chips per serving} = \frac{1/4 \text{ cup}}{4} = \frac{1}{16} \text{ cup}
\]

2. **Calculate total chocolate chips for 28 servings**:

Now, multiply the amount needed for one serving by the number of servings (28):

\[
\text{Chocolate chips for 28 servings} = 28 \times \frac{1}{16} = \frac{28}{16} = \frac{7}{4} \text{ cups}
\]

3. **Convert to a mixed number** (if desired):

\(\frac{7}{4} = 1 \frac{3}{4}\) cups.

Thus, the total amount of chocolate chips needed for 28 servings is:

\[
\boxed{1 \frac{3}{4}} \text{ cups} \text{ or } 1.75 \text{ cups}
\]
