One 8-ounce can of soda has 228 calories.  If Shaun drinks the big 28-ounce size from the local mini-mart, how many calories will he consume?

Answer:

798

Explanation:

Find the amount of calories in a 1-ounce can.

8 oz : 228cal

1oz : 28.5 cal

To find the amount of calories Shaun will consume if he drinks the big 28 ounce size, we have to multiply the bolded ratio by 28 on both sides.

28oz : 28.5*28

Solve

28oz : 798

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day!
