4) A bottle of orange juice contains \( 750 \mathrm{mg} \) of vitamin \( C \) and has 6 servings. A bottle of cranberry juice contains \( 135 \mathrm{mg} \) of vitamin C and has 1.5 servings. Mrs. Kahn wants to compare the amount of vitamin \( \mathrm{C} \) in the juices.
(1) How many milligrams of vitamin \( \mathrm{C} \) are in 1 serving of each type of juice? Complete the statement.
(1)) Orange juice has \( 125 \mathrm{mg} \) of vitamin C per serving.
Cranberry juice has \( 90 \quad \mathrm{mg} \) of vitamin C per serving.
(1)) How does the amount of vitamin C in each type of juice compare? Complete the statement.
(1)) One serving of ? juice has ? mg more vitamin C per serving than one serving of ? juice.
Answer
Orange juice has \( 125 - 90 = 35 \)mg more vitamin C per serving than cranberry juice
Step 1 ：\( \frac{750 \mathrm{mg}}{6 \mathrm{servings}} = 125 \mathrm{mg/serving} \) for orange juice
Step 2 ：\( \frac{135 \mathrm{mg}}{1.5 \mathrm{servings}} = 90 \mathrm{mg/serving} \) for cranberry juice
Step 3 ：Orange juice has \( 125 - 90 = 35 \)mg more vitamin C per serving than cranberry juice
