Answer 1

We are given in the question that 3 oz. of sugar is contained in 10 oz. of cereal.

To find the amount of sugar in 25 oz. of cereal, we first calculate the amount of sugar per ounce:

`\Rightarrow(3)/(10)\text{ oz. of sugar per oz. of cereal}`

Therefore, the oz. of sugar in 25 oz. of cereal is gotten by multiplying as shown below:

`\Rightarrow(3)/(10)*25=7.5\text{ oz. of sugar}`

Therefore, there is 7.5 oz. of sugar in 25 oz. of cereal.
