Answer: Without additional information, it's not possible to answer these questions with certainty. However, we can make some assumptions and calculations based on average values.

Assuming that an average bagel contains about 250-300 calories, we can estimate the number of calories in one bagel as 275 calories.

To determine how many bagels one could eat if they only wanted to consume 2,500 calories, we would need to divide the total calorie limit by the number of calories in one bagel:

2500 calories / 275 calories per bagel ≈ 9 bagels

So, if someone wanted to consume no more than 2,500 calories and each bagel contains about 275 calories, they could eat about 9 bagels.

For the third question, we can use the information given to calculate how many calories Jerrel can still consume:

Maximum calories for dinner = 2400 - 1275 = 1125 calories

Assuming an average bagel contains 275 calories, we can estimate the maximum number of bagels Jerrel can have as:

Maximum number of bagels = 1125 calories / 275 calories per bagel ≈ 4 bagels

Therefore, Jerrel can have a maximum of 4 bagels for dinner if he wants to consume no more than 2,400 calories and has already consumed 1,275 calories.
