Answer 1

To determine which soup has less sodium per cup, we need to calculate the sodium content in each soup per cup.

For **Soup A**:
- Sodium per cup = 900 mg

For **Soup B**:
- Serving size = 1.5 cups, so we need to find the sodium content per cup.
- Sodium per cup = 1200 mg / 1.5 cups = 800 mg per cup

Now, we can compare the sodium per cup for both soups:
- Soup A: 900 mg per cup
- Soup B: 800 mg per cup

Since 800 mg (Soup B) is less than 900 mg (Soup A), **Soup B has less sodium per cup**.

The correct answer is: **Soup B**.
