Answer 1

The U.S RDA for protein is 46g for girl

If a piece of fried chicken contains 23g

To find the pieces of chicken she is to eat to satisfy the U.S RDA requirement,

The number of pieces of chicken is

$\text{Number of pieces}=\frac{U.S.\text{ RDA g protein required for a girl}}{g\text{ of protein in a piece of chicken}}$

The number of pieces of chicken is

$\begin{gathered} \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=\frac{46}{23}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \\ \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the right option is B
