Answer:

74g:148g

Explanation:

If the yogurt portion is 3, then your answer is 148g.

You have a total of 5 portions (2+3=5). Since all portions must be equal, you can divide the total (185g) by 5. That means each portion is 37g each. To find the total weight of the yogurt, we multiply by the number of portions, either 2 or 3. That would be your result.
