Increasing Apache max connection numbers with ServerLimit

I would like to change the default max connection numbers in Apache as the number of processes is now

# ps -ef | grep apache2 | wc -l
152

I have read that I have to change ServerLimit, but I don't see that in apache config files.

# grep -r ServerLimit .
#

Where should I apply that?

UPDATE:

Regarding the MPM module, I see this in mods-available/mpm_prefork.conf:

<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
        StartServers                     5
        MinSpareServers           5
        MaxSpareServers          10
        MaxRequestWorkers         150
        MaxConnectionsPerChild   0
</IfModule>

Should I increase MaxRequestWorkers only? Or I have to define ServerLimit?

MPM configuration setting located in conf.modules.d/00-mpm.conf file. You can configure ServerLimit after LoadModule entry. You can refer httpd process always 256
