There are 3.9 milligrams of calcium in a 1/2 ounce of cooked chicken. how many milligrams are in 6 ounces

The answer is:  46.8 mg .

         There are 46.8 mg of calcium in  6 oz. of cooked chicken.

Explanation:  To solve:

(3.9 mg Ca) / (0.5 oz chicken) = ( "x" mg Ca) / 6 oz cooked chicken ; 

  Find "x" (in "mg", or "milligrams").


    →  (3.9)/(0.5) = x/ 6


  → (0.5)x = (3.9) * (6) ;

  → (0.5) x = 23.4 ;

  →  Now, divide EACH side of the equation by "(0.5)", to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for x:

  → (0.5) x / (0.5) = 23.4 / (0.5) ;

  →       x =  46.8 mg Ca
