In other words, proportions are fractions of a larger dataset

The given parameters from the question are given as:

  • Proportion of the daily value of fiber needed = 57%
  • Daily serving = 14 grams.

Amount of fiber

The amount of fiber needed in a day is the product of the proportion and the size of the daily serving.

So, we have:

[tex]Amount = 57\% \times 14g[/tex]

[tex]Amount = 7.98g[/tex]
