To find the total number of servings Jeremy can make from the value pack of cheese crackers, we need to divide the total ounces of the crackers by the ounces per serving.

  1. Total ounces of crackers: 42 ounces
  2. Ounces per serving: \( \frac{1}{4} \) ounces (which is equivalent to 0.25 ounces)

Now, we calculate the number of servings:

\[ \text{Number of servings} = \frac{\text{Total ounces}}{\text{Ounces per serving}} = \frac{42}{\frac{1}{4}} \]

To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal:

\[ = 42 \times 4 = 168 \text{ servings} \]

Since the options provided seem unrelated to the calculated result, it appears that we may need to reevaluate the ounces per serving if a mistake was made while interpreting the serving size.

However, during the calculation above, we interpreted serving size correctly—if each serving is indeed 1/4 ounces, then 168 servings is correct. Each option given in the multiple choices does not offer a solution that reflects our computed figure.

It means the possible answers might have been misinterpreted in important context. Nonetheless, based on the numbers from the problem as presented, Jeremy can achieve 168 servings from the value pack of cheese crackers.

Please check to ensure the ounces per serving were noted without miscommunication, as this would significantly change the end answers.
