Celeste's diet restricts her intake of protein to 24 g per day. If she eats 1.2oz of protein, has she exceeded her protein limit for the day?

Isn't 1oz equivalent to 28 grams...

454grams/16 oz =

In order to determine if Celeste has exceeded her protein limit for the day, we need to convert the given amount from ounces to grams to make it easier to compare.

To convert ounces to grams, we can use the conversion factor: 1 ounce = 28.35 grams.

So, 1.2 ounces of protein is equal to 1.2 * 28.35 = 34.02 grams.

Since Celeste's protein limit for the day is 24 grams, and she has consumed 34.02 grams, she has indeed exceeded her protein limit for the day.

To answer this question, we need to determine the amount of protein in 1.2 ounces and compare it to Celeste's daily protein limit of 24 grams.

1. First, we need to convert the weight from ounces to grams, since the protein limit is given in grams.

1 ounce is approximately equal to 28.35 grams.

So, 1.2 ounces of protein would be equal to (1.2 x 28.35) grams ≈ 34.02 grams.

2. Now that we know that 1.2 ounces is equal to 34.02 grams, we can check if Celeste has exceeded her protein limit.

Since the protein limit is 24 grams, and Celeste has consumed 34.02 grams, it is clear that she has exceeded her protein limit for the day.

Therefore, Celeste has consumed more protein than her daily limit by approximately 10.02 grams.
