Anew soup recipe contains 33\%33% less sodium per serving than the old soup recipe. the old soup recipe contained xx milligrams of sodium per serving. which of the following expressions could represent the amount of sodium per serving, in milligrams, in the new soup recipe?

x(1-0.33) or 0.67 x

Step-by-step explanation:

The old soup recipe contained sodium per serving = x mg

According to the question,

The new soup recipe contains 33% less sodium per serving than the old soup recipe.

That is, the Sodium per serving in the new soup = the Sodium per serving in the new soup - 33% of the Sodium per serving in the new soup

= x - 33% of x

= x - 0.33 x      ( since 1% = 0.01 ⇒ 33 % = 0.33 )

= x(1-0.33)

= x(0.67)

(1-33/100)x

0.67x
