113.33 grams or 113 1/3 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that

Observing the table

In 12 ounces of cola there are 40 grams of sugar

using proportion

Find out how many of grams there are in 34 fluid ounces of cola

Let

x ----> the grams of sugar

[tex]\frac{12}{40}\frac{fl\ oz}{g}=\frac{34}{x}\frac{fl\ oz}{g}\\\\x=40(34)/12\\\\x=113.33\ g[/tex]

Convert to mixed number

[tex]113.33\ g=113+0.33=113+\frac{1}{3}=113\frac{1}{3}\ g[/tex]
