To find the amount of sodium in 3 ounces of mixed nuts, you would need to multiply the sodium content per ounce by the number of ounces you have.

Given that there are 2.25 mg of sodium in 1 ounce, you can calculate the sodium in 3 ounces as follows:

3 ounces × 2.25 mg of sodium/ounce = 6.75 mg of sodium.

So, the correct method is:
• multiply 3 times 2.25.

You should select this option.
