Answer 1

To determine how many servings Haneef can make with 7 cups of couscous, we need to calculate how many servings are possible using the recipe that calls for half a cup of couscous per serving.

1. Calculate total servings: Each serving uses 0.5 cups of couscous. Therefore, to find out how many servings he can make with 7 cups, we divide:

   \[ \text{Number of servings} = \frac{7 \text{ cups}}{0.5 \text{ cups/serving}} = 14 \text{ servings} \]

2. Evaluate the solution: Since Haneef has enough couscous to make 14 servings and he wants to use it all, this is a viable solution.

The correct response is:

14 servings, and yes, it is a viable solution.
