Question

A 28 g serving of almonds has 160 calories. How many calories are in a 45 g serving of almonds?​

Answer 1

257.14 calories (about 260)

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use proportions.

If a 28 g serving of almonds has 160 calories, then:

28 g / 160 calories = 45 g / x calories

where x is the number of calories in a 45 g serving of almonds.

We can cross-multiply and solve for x:

28 g * x = 160 calories * 45 g

x = (160 calories * 45 g) / 28 g

x = 257.14 calories

Therefore, a 45 g serving of almonds has 257.14 calories (rounded to two decimal places).
