Answer:

In 2.75 servings of catmeal there are 9.6

Explanation:

If there are 3.5 grams of fat in one serving, the there will be (3.5)(2.75) = 9,62 grams of fat in 2.75 servings. As you need to round your answer to the nearest tenth, you look at the number that follows 6: if this number is greater than 5 you have to add one to 6, if it is ≤5, 6 remains the same.

In this case, the number that follows 6 is 2, so 6 remains the same, and the answer will be 9.6.
