Answer:
The number of calories are directly proportional to the number of ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can relate these values as:
Let x be the calories in 4 ounces of broiled hamburger.
[tex]\frac{3}{245} =\frac{4}{x}[/tex]
=> [tex]3x=4\times245[/tex]
=> [tex]3x=980[/tex]
Dividing by 3 on both sides;
x = 327 approx
We can see that 4 ounces contain 327 calories.
Per ounce will have [tex]327/4=81.75[/tex] calories.
As the quantity of hamburger increases, the calories count also increases.
