A recipe calls for 13 of a 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?(1 point)

Responses

13×150÷14
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by Start Fraction 1 over 4 End Fraction

13×150÷4
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by 4

13÷150÷4
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction divided by 150 divided by 4

13×150×4

1 answer

To find the number of calories per serving in the recipe, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the total calories in the yogurt used for the recipe:
    Since each container has 150 calories and you are using \( \frac{1}{3} \) of a container (assuming this is what "13" represents as \( \frac{1}{3} \)), the total calories from \( \frac{1}{3} \) of the yogurt would be:
    \[ \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \]

  2. Divide that total by the number of servings:
    The recipe makes 4 servings, so you will divide the total calories by 4:
    \[ \left(\frac{1}{3} \times 150\right) \div 4 \]

The calculations that correctly reflect this process would be:

  • Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by Start Fraction 1 over 4 End Fraction
    or
  • Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by 4

Given the responses you provided, the following option represents the correct calculation:
Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 divided by 4.
