NEED HELP NOW, WILL GIVE 25 POINTS!!!

Question 24 refers to the following information:

Serving cup size: 1 cup
Sodium: 440 milligrams
Potassium: 171 milligrams
Protein: 4 grams
One box of protein contains 8 servings.

Joslyn consumed 8 grams of protein from the cereal, if she consumed p% of the box, what is the value of p?

Answer 1

She consumed 25% of the box.

1 serving had 4 grams of protein.

She had 8 grams, which is in 2 servings,

She had 2 out of 8 servings.

2 : 8

1 : 4

1 is 25% of 4, therefore 2 is 25% of 8.

Answer 2

25

Explanation:

One box contains 8 servings, one serving is a cup and the amount of sodium, potassium, and protein in that one serving is 440 milligrams, 171 milligrams, and 4 grams in that order.

Using this information, multiply all the minerals by 8 to get their total amount in the box.

In the entire box of cereal:

Sodium is 3520 milligrams

Potassium is 1368 milligrams

Protein is 32 grams

And they are all in 8 cups

8 grams of protein is 1/4 of 32 because 32/8 is 4

1/4 in a percentage is 25%

She consumed 25 percent of the box

Hope this helps :)
