Question

There are 120 calories in 3/4 cups serving of soup. How many calories are there in 2 cups of the soup?

Answer 1

Ans 960

Explanation:

120/3/4 = x/6 Cross multiply: 0.75x = 720 Divide each side of the equation by 0.75 x = 960.

Answer 2

Let c = number of calories.

`(120)/( (3)/(4) ) = (c)/(2)`

`(3)/(4) c = 240`

`c = 320`
