Assume that based on 2,000 calories per day, you want to choose 1/8 of your daily calories from consuming milk. How many calories am I allowed to get from milk and how many cups per serving?(1 cup of milk has 150 calories)

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.7 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Firstly, we need to figure out how many calories of milk we are allowed to consume. This would be solved by dividing 2000 by 8 to find 1/8 of 2000.
  2. 2000 ÷ 8 is 250 calories. With this information, now we can use the information we have about one cup of milk.
  3. If one cup of milk is 150 calories and we are allowed to consume 250 calories of milk, we can solve by dividing 250 by 150.
  4. 250 ÷ 150 is 1.7 cups of milk.

If I am incorrect in my reasoning, please let me know so that I can plan better for my future answers. Have an amazing day.
