for every 1/2 cup there is 1.2 grams of protein so 1.2 x 3.5 will get you 4.2 grams

Answer:

8.4 grams

Explanation:

So if there are 1.2 grams of protein in a half cup serving, and you're trying to find how many grams in a 3.5 serving. Find the number of halves in 3.5

That would be 7, because 7 multiplied by 1/2 is 3.5

So then multiply 1.2 with 7

= 8.4 grams
