Answer:

28 grams

Explanation:

Make a porportion

For every 0.5 cups of milk, there are 4 grams of protein

For every 3.5 cups of milk, there are x grams of protein

0.5/4=3.5/x

Cross multiply

0.5x=14

Divide by 0.5 on both sides

x=28

So, for 2.5 cups of milk, there is 28 grams of protein

Hope this helps!
