One serving of

• a certain brand of yogurt contains 12 g of fat
• the low-fat yogurt contains 38.75% less fat

Let x g be the amount of fat in low-fat yogurt. Then

12 g of fat - 100%

x g of fat - 100% - 38.75% = 61.26%

Write a proportion

`(12)/(x)=(100)/(61.25)`

Cross multuply

`100\cdot x=12\cdot 61.25\\ \\100x=735\\ \\x=(735)/(100)=7.35`

One serving of law-fat yogurt contains 7.35 g of fat.
