Question

Help please??

A 3 oz piece of fried chicken has 23 grams of protein. If Brittany, who is 15 years old, ate a 6 oz piece of fried chicken, what percent of her U.S. RDA for protein did she consume

Answer 1

7.67% protein

Answer 2

I like using proportions for these type of problems. Since we don't know the amount of protein is consumed by Brittany we will leave that as x.

We will do ounces over grams.
3. 6
-- = --
23. X

Solve for x.

Answer 3

Answer 4

1

Answer 5
