(1-33/100)x and 0.67x are the expressions which could represent the amount of sodium per serving.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us take x to be the amount of sodium in the old soup
So,
In the new soup,
The amount of sodium in the new recipe = x - 33/100
The remaining percent of sodium = 1 - 33/100 and x being the original amount
Thus, we get (1-33/100)x
In decimal form, it is 0.33.
Subtracting 0.33 from 1(100 percent)
1 - 0.33 = 0.67
To get the amount of sodium in the new recipe, we multiply this by the original amount of sodium i.e. x:
= 0.67x
