sugar concentration os 10g/100ml given a teaspoon weighs 4 g calculate how many teaspoons of sugar you would consume if you drank a 600ml bottle of soft drink
10g/100ml * 1tsp/4g * 6/6 = 15tsp/600ml
To calculate the number of teaspoons of sugar consumed in a 600ml bottle of soft drink, we need to convert the sugar concentration from grams per 100ml to grams per 600ml. Then, we can divide the total grams of sugar by the weight of a teaspoon to find the number of teaspoons.
1. Find the grams of sugar in 600ml of soft drink:
Since the sugar concentration is given as 10g/100ml, we can use this ratio to find the grams in 600ml.
First, calculate the grams per 1ml by dividing 10g by 100ml:
10g / 100ml = 0.1g/ml
Next, multiply the grams per ml by the total milliliters (600ml) to find the grams in 600ml:
0.1g/ml * 600ml = 60g
Therefore, there are 60 grams of sugar in a 600ml bottle of soft drink.
2. Convert the grams of sugar to teaspoons:
Since the weight of a teaspoon is given as 4g, we can divide the total grams of sugar by 4g to find the number of teaspoons.
Divide the grams of sugar (60g) by the weight of a teaspoon (4g):
60g / 4g = 15 teaspoons
So, if you drank a 600ml bottle of soft drink with a sugar concentration of 10g/100ml, you would consume approximately 15 teaspoons of sugar.
