Tara is making dinner for

1
1
4
kilograms of rice with
500
grams of vegetables and
410
grams of meat. If all of the food is split evenly among the diners, what is the size of each serving?
A.
240
grams
B.
244
grams
C.
250
grams
D.
256
grams
First, convert all measurements to the same unit (grams):
1.14 kg = 1140 g
500 g = 500 g
410 g = 410 g
Total amount of food = 1140 + 500 + 410 = 2050 g
To find the size of each serving, divide the total amount of food by the number of diners:
2050 g รท 9 = 227.78 g
Round this answer to the nearest gram:
Each serving size is approximately 228 grams, which is closest to option B.
Therefore, the answer is (B) 244 grams.
To find the size of each serving, we need to find the total weight of the food and divide it by the number of people.
The weight of rice is 1.14 kilograms, which is equal to 1140 grams.
The weight of vegetables is 500 grams.
The weight of meat is 410 grams.
Total weight of the food = rice + vegetables + meat
= 1140 grams + 500 grams + 410 grams
= 2050 grams
To find the size of each serving, we divide the total weight of the food by the number of people, which is 9.
Serving size = Total weight of the food / Number of people
= 2050 grams / 9
= 227.78 grams
Rounding to the nearest gram, the size of each serving is 228 grams.
Therefore, the correct answer is not listed among the given options.
