Answer:
Explanation:
This is a proportion problem. I think you just lost a zero.
12/100 = 9/x Cross multiply
12x = 100*9 Combine the right.
12x = 900 Divide by 12
12x/12 = 900/12
x = 75 grams
So if you put 75 grams of tasty Oats in a bowl and covered it with milk the cereal would give you 9 grams of Protein.
2.
1 gram of Tasty Oats cereal contains 12/100 = 0.12 grams of protein.
1 gram of Cornbits contains 5/45 = 0.11 grams of protein.
By the narrowest of margins the Tasty Oats has more protein in it.
