Step-by-step explanation

To know how many more grams of servings does he need to hit his goal of 34g of protein we need to do a "rule of three"

1. Write all information provided

30 grams of serving size of protein powder = 25g of protein

x = 34g of protein

2. Cross multiply, and then divide

30grams of serving protein powder x 34g of protein = 1020

1020 / 25g of protein = 40,8 grams serving size of protein powder.

3. Subtract the regular serving size from the ideal serving size

40,8 grams of serving size of protein powder - 30 grams of serving size of protein powder = 10,8 grams of serving size of protein powder.

According to the above, the correct answer is 10,8 more grams of serving size of protein powder is the quantity that Jovanny needs to hit his goal of 34g of protein.
