A certain can of iced tea contains 4% of the recommended daily allowance of sodium. The recommended daily allowance is 2500 milligrams. How many milligrams of sodium are in the can of iced tea?
0.04 * 2500 = ?
To find out how many milligrams of sodium are in the can of iced tea, we can use the percentage given and the recommended daily allowance.
First, we need to convert the recommended daily allowance from a percentage to a decimal. To do this, divide the percentage by 100:
4% ÷ 100 = 0.04
Now, we can calculate the amount of sodium in the can of iced tea by multiplying the decimal form of the percentage by the recommended daily allowance:
0.04 × 2500 milligrams = 100 milligrams
Therefore, there are 100 milligrams of sodium in the can of iced tea.
