Question

At a popular Italian restaurant chain, a bowl of spaghetti without tomato sauce contains 400 kilocalories. A standard serving size (1/2 cup) of cooked spaghetti has about 110 kilocalories. Approximately how many standard servings of pasta are in the restaurant meal?

Answer 1

The answer is 3.6 servings per meal.

Explanation:

Each meal of spaghetti has 400 kcal. We can get the amount of servings just simply dividing the meal by the standar serving size:

`Servings= (400 Kcal)/(1 meal) (1serving)/(110Kcal) =3.6 (servings)/(meal)`
