Respuesta :

L'Shonda purchased a container of juice. 80 calories are from carbohydrates.

Solution:

Given that, LShonda purchased a container of juice that contains 200 calories.  

The label says that 40% of the calories are from carbohydrates.  

We have to find how many calories are from carbohydrates?

Now, according to the given information,

Number of calories from carbohydrates = 40% of the total calories of the juice

Then, calories from carbohydrates = 40% of 200 calories

40% can be written in fraction as [tex]\frac{40}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\text { Calories from carbohydrates }=\frac{40}{100} \times 200=40 \times 2=80 \text { calories }[/tex]

Hence, 80 calories are from carbohydrates.
