Answer:

120 calories

Explanation:

If 1/4 of a cup is 90 calories we can find that 1 cup is 4*90=360 calories. If you wanted to find the amount of calories in 1/3 of a cup, we can divide the amount of calories in 1 cup by 3. So, 360/3=120 calories.

We know that this is accurate as 1/3>1/4 so the amount of calories should also be bigger, as 120>90.

The amount of calories in 1/3 cup is 120.
