1 answer

To find the number of calories per serving from the yogurt used in the recipe, you would want to:

  1. Determine the total number of calories contributed by the yogurt.
  2. Divide that total by the number of servings.

Here’s how the calculations break down:

  1. Calculate the total calories from the yogurt:

    • Since each container of yogurt has 150 calories and the recipe uses 1/3 of a container, you calculate:

    \[ \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \]

  2. Divide that result by the number of servings (which is 4):

    \[ \frac{\left(\frac{1}{3} \times 150\right)}{4} \]

Putting it all together, the correct calculation would be:

\[ \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \div 4 \]

So, the correct response from the options given is:

1/3×150÷4.
