1/3×150÷4
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by 4

1/3×150×4
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 times 4

1/3×150÷1/4

1 answer

To determine the calories per serving, we need to find out how many calories are in the portion of yogurt used in the recipe and then divide that total by the number of servings.

  1. Calculate the calories from the yogurt: Since each container of yogurt has 150 calories and we are using \( \frac{1}{3} \) of the container, the total calories from the yogurt used in the recipe is: \[ \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \]

  2. Calculate the calories per serving: The recipe makes 4 servings, so we then divide the total calories by 4: \[ \left( \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \right) \div 4 \]

The corresponding calculation from the options given is:

  • \( \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \div 4 \)

Therefore, the correct response is: 1/3×150÷4
