Question

A 3-ounce serving of tuna provides 21 grams of protein. Use equivalent ratios to find how many grams of protein are in 9 ounces of tuna

Answer 1

Answer:

63 grams of protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ounces = 21 grams of protein.

Question is how many grams are in 9 ounces, you then have to find the ratio that you need to use to find out how many grams of protein are in 9 ounces. Therefor you divide the amount that we don't know the equal amount of grams by the amount we do know the equal amount of grams, giving us the ratio.

9 divided by 3 = ratio (3)

Then use the ratio for the grams of protein.

21 x 3 = 63.
