We need to convert the amount of punch to ounces since the serving size is given in ounces.
1 gallon = 128 ounces
Miriam makes 2 + 1/4 gallons of punch = 2 x 128 + 32 = 288 ounces of punch
Now we divide the total amount of punch by the serving size:
288 ÷ 4 = 72
Therefore, Miriam can serve 72 4-ounce servings of punch.
