Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction times 150 times 4

Answer 1

To calculate the number of calories per serving for the recipe, we need to determine the total calories from the yogurt and then divide by the number of servings.

1. Each container of yogurt has 150 calories.
2. The recipe calls for 13 containers of yogurt.
3. Total calories from the yogurt = \( 13 \text{ containers} \times 150 \text{ calories/container} = 1950 \text{ calories} \).
4. The recipe makes 4 servings.

Now, to find the number of calories per serving, we take the total calories and divide by the number of servings:

\[ \text{Calories per serving} = \frac{1950}{4} = 487.5 \]

Now let's analyze the options provided:

• Option 1: \( \frac{13 \times 150}{14} \) (This option is incorrect because we should be dividing by 4.)
• Option 2: \( \frac{1}{3} \times 150 \div \frac{1}{4} \) (This option is incorrect.)
• Option 3: \( \frac{13 \times 150}{4} \) (This is the correct calculation!)
• Option 4: \( \frac{1}{3} \div 150 \div 4 \) (This option is incorrect.)
• Option 5: \( 13 \times 150 \times 4 \) (This option is incorrect.)

The correct choice is:

Option 3: \( 13 \times 150 \div 4 \)
