Question

A box of cereal states that there are 99 calories in a 3/4 cup serving. What is the unit rate for calories per cup? How many calories in 4 cups of cereal

Answer 1

Divide 99 calories by 4, then multiply that amount by 3 to get 132 calories. So per cup, there are 132 calories. Multiply 132 by 4 and you should get your answer which is 528.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hello There!

According to the question,

It is said that we have to find calories in 4 cups.

First we have to find in each cup.

So

$\frac{3}{4} \times x = 99 \\ \\ so \: x = 99 \times \frac{4}{3}$

simplify 99 and 3 then it will look like

$33 \times \frac{4}{1}$

1 has no value so 33×4=132 calories

Now it is in each cup or 1 cup.

To find in 4 cups, multiply 132×4

$132 \times 4 = 528$

So 528 calories is the answer.
