Just calculate gms sug/ounce cereal for each

Frosted Flakes  11gms/1oz  = 11 oz per gram

Raisin Bran        13     / 1.4   = 9.29 oz per gram     Frosted Flakes has more sugar per gram (as expected!)

Guess I should say RAISIN BRAN has less sugar (since THAT is what the Q asked to determine)

   and I had  gm and oz reversed originally....
