    15 guests.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    9 1/2 = 9 5/10 or 95/10.

    3/5 = 6/10.

    95 / 6 = 15

    So it would be 15 guest maximum.

    15 guests.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    As the statement says that Carly has 9 1/2 of ice cream and each guest will be served 3/5 pint of ice cream, to determine the number of guests that she can serve, you have to divide 9 1/2 by 3/5:

    9 1/2:3/5

    19/2:3/5

    =95/6 = 15

    According to this, the greatest number of guests that Carly can serve is 15 guests.
