1/3×150×4
1/3×150÷4
1/3÷150÷4
1/3×150÷14
The correct set of calculations is:
1/3 x 150 ÷ 4
The correct set of calculations to determine the number of calories per serving would be:
1/3 × 150 × 4
To find the correct number of calories per serving, you need to calculate the total number of calories in the portion of yogurt needed for the recipe and then divide it by the number of servings the recipe makes.
First, let's calculate the total calories in the portion of yogurt needed for the recipe. You have 1/3 of a container of yogurt, and each container has 150 calories. Multiply 1/3 by 150:
1/3 * 150 = 50
So, the portion of yogurt needed for the recipe contains 50 calories.
Next, divide this by the number of servings the recipe makes, which is 4:
50 / 4 = 12.5
Therefore, the correct set of calculations to find the number of calories per serving is 1/3 × 150 ÷ 4.
