Answer 1

Fractions

There are 75 calories in a 3/4-cup serving. The unit rate for calories per cup can be obtained by dividing both quantities as follows:

$\frac{75}{\frac{3}{4}}=75\cdot\frac{4}{3}=\frac{300}{3}=100$

The unit rate is 100 calories per cup.

If we have 2 cups of the cereal, then the number of calories is: 2 * 100 = 200

There are 200 calories in 2 cups of cereal
