Chapter SH, Problem 23.7APP

To determine

To calculate: Grams of fat in the given amount of cheddar cheese.

Answer to Problem 23.7APP

Amount of fats in $\text{250 g}$ of cheddar cheese is $\underset{\_}{82.5\text{ g}}$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Amount of fat in $\text{100 g}$ of cheddar cheese = $33\text{ g}$

Amount of cheddar cheese = $\text{250 g}$

Calculation:

Amount of fat in $\text{100 g}$ of cheddar cheese = $33\text{ g}$

Amount of fat in $\text{1 g}$ of cheddar cheese = $\frac{33\text{ g}}{100\text{ g}}$

Amount of fat in $\text{250 g}$ of cheddar cheese = $\frac{33\text{ g}}{100\text{ g}}\times 250\text{}\text{g}=82.5\text{g}$

Conclusion:

Amount of fats in $\text{250 g}$ of cheddar cheese is $\underset{\_}{82.5\text{ g}}$ .
