Question

A food label on a box of cereal states that a serving size of 1 cup contains 220 calories. The total fat is 1 1/2 cups of cereal for breakfast, how many calories, grams of fat, percent Daily Value of fat, and milligrams of cholesterol will you eat?

Answer 1

330 Calories, 9 g of fat, 15% daily value fat and 0 mg of cholesterol will be consumed.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the given serving size is 1 cup, eating 1.5 (1 1/2) cups will multiply each value by 1.5:

Hence the value will be,

Calories : 220 calories * 1.5

= 330 calories

Fat :6 grams of fat * 1.5

= 9 grams of fat

Daily value fat :10% DV of fat * 1.5

=15% DV of fat

Cholesterol : 0 mg of cholesterol * 1.5

= 0 mg of cholesterol

Therefore, it is 330 Calories, 9 g of fat, 15% daily value fat and 0 mg of cholesterol
