16. If there are 75 calories in 220 grams of an artificial sweetener, how many calories would be in 484 grams of that same artificial sweetener?
d. 165 calories
a. 150 calories
b. 155 calories
c. 160 calories

d. 165 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we would find the amount of calories in 1 gram of the artificial sweetener

1 gram = 220/75

1 gram = 2.93 calories

Therefore, 484 grams has;

484 * 2.93 = 165.2

Approximately, this is equal to 165 calories.

Method 2

220 grams of the artificial sweetener has 75 calories.

484 grams of the artificial sweetener has x calories.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

220 = 75

484 = x

Cross-multiplying, we have;

220x = 75*484

220x = 36300

x = 36300/220

x = 165 calories.
