Question

an 18 ounce bottle of soda contains 216 calories. If sam drinks 6 ounces how many calories will he consume?

Answer 1

Answer: 72 Calories

Explanation:

First, calculate the calories per ounce.

216/18= 12

Then, multiply by 6 to get how many calories Sam consumed.

12 * 6= 72

Sam consumed 72 calories.

You can also see that 6 ounces is 1/3 of the bottle, so the answer can also be derived by multiplying 218 by 1/3.

Answer 2

72 calories because 18 / 6 is 3 so 216/ 3 is 72
