To find the number of servings of Sour Patch Kids available, we divide the total weight of the box by the weight of each serving.

Total weight of box: 4/5 of a pound
Weight of each serving: 1/15 of a pound

Dividing the total weight of the box by the weight of each serving:
(4/5) / (1/15) = (4/5) * (15/1) = 4 * 15/5 = 60/5 = 12

Therefore, there are 12 servings of Sour Patch Kids available. The correct answer is 12.
