Question

A serving of vanilla ice cream is 120 g. One serving contains 230 calories. If you have only 100 g of vanilla ice cream, how many calories did you have?

Answer 1

Answer:

191 $\frac{2}{3}$  calories

Explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the number of calories

$\frac{120}{230}$ = $\frac{100}{x}$

Cross multiply and solve for x

120x = 23000

x = 191 $\frac{2}{3}$

So, in 100g of ice cream, you will have 191 $\frac{2}{3}$ calories
