#10# servings with #1/6# liter remaining.

Explanation:

Lemonade concentrate + water #= 1/2 + 3 =3(1/2)# #l#

(1/3) l for one serving of lemonade.

3(1/2) l for # (3(1/2)) / (1/3) = (7 * 3 ) / 2 = 10.5 servings

I'd say #10.5# servings.

Explanation:

If we all the total volume of lemonade concentrate and water together, we get #0.5+3=3.5 \ "L"# together. That is assuming that the lemonade concentrate to water ratio is #1:6# to make lemonade.

So, we can make:

#(3.5color(red)cancelcolor(black)"L")/(1/3color(red)cancelcolor(black)"L""/serving")=10.5 \ "servings"#
