Answer:
One serving of law-fat yogurt contains 7.35 g of fat.
Step-by-step explanation:
One serving of
- a certain brand of yogurt contains 12 g of fat
- the low-fat yogurt contains 38.75% less fat
Let x g be the amount of fat in low-fat yogurt. Then
12 g of fat - 100%
x g of fat - 100% - 38.75% = 61.26%
Write a proportion
[tex]\dfrac{12}{x}=\dfrac{100}{61.25}[/tex]
Cross multuply
[tex]100\cdot x=12\cdot 61.25\\ \\100x=735\\ \\x=\dfrac{735}{100}=7.35[/tex]
One serving of law-fat yogurt contains 7.35 g of fat.
