Answer:
In each muffin there are 1.53oz
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to get the weight of just one muffin. If the package contains six muffins we must divide the total weight by six.
[tex]weight_{unit}=\frac{18oz}{6}=3oz[/tex]
The weight of just one muffin is 3oz.
Now, the problem says that blueberry high-fiber muffins contain 51 % dietary fiber by mass, which means that we must calculate the 51% of 3oz. We must take into account that 51% equals 51/100 which is 0.51. The equation would be:
[tex]fiber=(3oz)(0.51)=1.53oz[/tex]
Finally, in each muffin there are 1.53oz of fiber.
