Answer: 1,080

Explanation: if you have 1/4 cup that has 135 calories to get you to two cups you have to multiply by eight because there is 4 1/4 cups in 1 cups and you double that and you have to do the same with the calories so 135 • 8=1,080

Answer:

1080 cal will be in 2 cups of trail mix

Step-by-step explanation:

If 135 cal = 1/4 cups

    ?   cal = 2 cups

This is obtained by representing the unknown value of calories with a variable say Z, and the cross multiply to get a general equation. i.e.

135cal = 1/4 cups

 Z cal = 2 cups

So therefore,

So therefore,

Z cal X 1/4 cups = 135cal  X 2 cups

To get the value of Z, divide both sides by 1/4 cups;

Z cal = 135 cal X 2 X 4 ( cups cancel out)

Z cal = 1080 cal

Z = 1080; Therefore it takes 1080cal  to be in 2 cup trail mix.
