Answer:

200 g of cheese

Explanation:

From the table attached, we can see that each 100 g of cheese contain 22.5 g of protein. For us to calculate the amount of cheese needed to provide about 45 g of protein, we use the formula:

Amount of cheese for 45 g of protein = (100 g of cheese/ 22.5 g of protein) * 45 g of protein

Amount of cheese for 45 g of protein = 200 g of cheese

Therefore 200 g of cheese would be needed to provide 45 g of protein.
