A recipe calls for 1/3 of a container of yogurt. Each container of yogurt has 150 calories. The recipe makes 4 servings. Which set of calculations would give the correct number of calories per serving?
A. 1/3÷150÷4
B. 1/3×150×4
C. 1/3×150÷4
D. 1/3×150÷1/4
The correct set of calculations would be A. 1/3÷150÷4.
Explanation: To find the number of calories per serving, we first need to find the number of calories in 1/3 of the container of yogurt. We can do this by dividing 1/3 by 150 (calories in 1 container of yogurt) to get the number of calories in 1/3 of a container.
Next, we divide this number by 4 (number of servings the recipe makes) to find the calories per serving.
Therefore, the correct set of calculations is 1/3÷150÷4.
To find the correct number of calories per serving, we need to figure out how many calories are in 1/3 of a container of yogurt and then divide it by the number of servings in the recipe.
First, we need to calculate how many calories are in 1/3 of a container of yogurt:
1/3 × 150
The correct set of calculations is C. 1/3 × 150 ÷ 4.
So, the correct number of calories per serving would be:
1/3 * 150 ÷ 4 = 50 ÷ 4 = 12.5 calories per serving (rounded to the nearest calorie).
