A serving of vanilla ice cream is 120 g. One serving contains 230 calories. If you have only 100 g of vanilla ice cream, how many calories did you have?

Answer:

191
(2)/(3) calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the number of calories


(120)/(230) =
(100)/(x)

Cross multiply and solve for x

120x = 23000

x = 191
(2)/(3)

So, in 100g of ice cream, you will have 191
(2)/(3) calories
