Question

The nutritional chart on the side of a cereal states there are 125 calories in a 1 1/4 cup serving how many calories are in 5 cups of the cereal ?

Answer 1

First, it is important to note that 5 cups is 4 times bigger than 1 1/4 cups.

As a result, you can determine the number of calories in 5 cups by multiplying the amount in 1 1/4 cups by 4:

125 calories x 4 = 500 calories

There would be 500 calories in 5 cups of cereal.
