832.5 calories

Explanation:

One ounce bag of Hot Cheetos contains 90 calories from fat and 150 total calories. Also a party size bag of hot Cheetos weigh 18.5 ounces.

Therefore the weight of half of a bag of party-size chips = Size of a party size bag of hot Cheetos / 2 = 18.5 ounces / 2 = 9.25 ounces.

Since one ounce bag of Hot Cheetos contains 90 calories from fat, the amount of fat contained in half a bag of party-size chips (9.25 ounces) is given as:

Calories of fat in half a bag of party-size = 90 calories per ounce * 9.25 ounces = 832.5 calories
