Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Katherine will use a multiple of 1/2 pint to serve her guests. That is the number of pints she will serve will be 2 1/2 = 5/2 = 5×(1/2).

Katherine can serve a maximum of 5 guests with the ice cream she purchased.

We could look at the quotient of 2 2/3 = 8/3 and 1/2. It will be ...

  (8/3)÷(1/2) = (8/3)×(2/1) = 16/3 = 5 1/3

The largest whole number in this value is 5, the number of guests Katherine can serve.
