Question

A recipe calls for 1/3 of 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?

Answer 1

To find the number of calories per serving, you need to find 1/3 of 150 calories and then divide it by 4.

The correct set of calculations would be:

1/3 * 150 calories = 50 calories (1/3 of container of yogurt)
50 calories / 4 servings = 12.5 calories per serving
