Answer:
A) I consumed 69 calories.
B) There are 21 cashews in one serving.
Explanation:
Given that the nutrition facts label on a container of dry roasted cashews indicates there are 161 calories in 28 grams, and I eat 9 cashews totaling 12 grams, to determine how many calories do I consume and how many cashews are in one serving should be performed the following calculations:
A)
28 = 161
12 = X
12 x 161/28 = X
1932/28 = X
69 = X
So, I consumed 69 calories.
B)
12 = 9
28 = X
28 x 9/12 = X
252/12 = X
21 = X
Therefore, there are 21 cashews in one serving.
