Answer:

1466 2/3 mg of sodium

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

550 mg         x mg

------------- = --------------

6 ounces       16 ounces

Using cross products

550* 16 = 6x

Divide each side by 6

550*16 /6 = 6x/6

8800/6 =x

4400/3 =x

Change to a mixed number

1466 2/3 mg of sodium
