Answer 1

Answer

4.42 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us see each of the diet one by one

1) Meat Loaf

  Net content = 3 oz

  Portion eaten  = 1/2 = 0.5

 Net content consumed = 3 x  0.5 = 1.5 oz

1) Mashed Potatoes  

  Net content = 3 oz

  Portion eaten  = 3/4 = 0.75

 Net content consumed = 3 x  0.75 = 2.25 oz

1)Green Peas

  Net content = 2 oz

  Portion eaten  = 1/3 = 0.333

 Net content consumed =2 x 0.33 = 0.666 oz

Net consumption = 1.50 oz + 2.25 oz + 0.666 oz

                             = 4.416 oz

                             = 4.42 oz

Answer 2

1/2 * 3 = 1.5 oz of meatloaf
3/4 * 3 = 2.25 oz of mashed potatoes
1/3 * 2 = 0.67 oz of green beans

1.5 + 2.25 + 0.67 = 4.42

Stacy consumed approximately 4.42 oz of solid food.
