Answer: 19.5 calories per ounce.

Explanation:

Given : The calorie density D, in calories per ounce, of a food that contains c calories and weighs w ounces is given by the formula :


D=(c)/(w)

Also, Ten ounces of a particular beverage contains 195 calories.

Then put w=10 and c = 195 in the above equation, we get


D=(195)/(10)=19.5

Hence, the calorie density of the beverage = 19.5 calories per ounce.
