If Jodi eats 2 chocolates she will consume 72 calories how many calories will she consume if she eats 5 chocolates

x = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2 chocolates        5 chocolates

=

72 calories                x calories

Using cross products

2 *x = 5*72

2x = 360

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 360/2

x = 180

Set up a ratio 2/72 = 5/x.

Now use cross-products.

(2)(x) = (5)(72).

2x = 360.

Now divide both sides by 2.

This gives us x = 180.

So, Jodi consumes 180 chocolates when she eats 5 chocolates.
