There are 90 calories in a 3/4 cup serving.

Therefore, 4 cups of cups of cereal will contain;

`\begin{gathered} \text{Number of }(3)/(4)\text{ cups=4 / }(3)/(4) \\ \text{Number of }(3)/(4)\text{ cups=}(4)/(1)*(4)/(3) \\ \text{Number of }(3)/(4)\text{ cups=}(16)/(3) \\ \text{Therefore, the number of servings shall be;} \\ =90*(16)/(3) \\ =30*16 \\ =480\text{ calories} \end{gathered}`

The correct answer is 480 calories
