Answer:

155 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Using proportion,

If 1 - ounce serving of baked potato = 45.3 calories

  [tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ounces = ?

=  [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] ÷ 1 * 45.3

=  101.9 calories

1-ounce serving of chicken contains 22.6 calories

[tex]2\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ounces = ?

= [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex] ÷ 1 * 22.6

= 52.7 calories

∴ Total calories = (101.9 +  52.7) calories

                           = 154. 6 calories which is approximately 155 calories.
