Mrs. Vance buys 710 grams of strawberries. She has 210 grams of strawberries left after making 5 glasses of strawberry smoothie. How many grams of strawberries does she use for a glass?

Answer 1

Eli Assouline

#"100 g"#

#"710 g" - x = "210 g"#

#x = "500 g"#

#"500 g = 5 glasses"#

and

#"500 g"/5 = "5 glasses"/5#

#"100 g = 1 glass"#
