a.
Answer to Problem 29E
The quantityof saturated fat recommended for 2000- Calorie dietis
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The label on package of cheese and macaroni states that it contains 3 grams of saturated fats and it is
Formula used:
Percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
To convert percentage to fraction divide the number by 100.
Calculation:
It is provided that the label on package of cheese and macaroni states that it contains 3 grams of saturated fats and it is
To evaluate the quantity of saturated fat recommended for 2000-Calorie diet, estimate a number of which 3 is
Recall that percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
Let that number be x,
Thus, for a 2000-Calorie diet, 20 grams of saturated fats are recommended.
b.
To calculate: Therecommended daily value of sodium as per U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
b.
Answer to Problem 29E
The recommended daily value of sodiumis
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The label on package of cheese and macaroni states it contains 470 milligrams of sodium salt fats and it is
Formula used:
Percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
To convert percentage to fraction divide the number by 100.
Calculation:
It is provided that the label on package of cheese and macaroni states it contains 470 milligrams of sodium salt fats and it is
To evaluate the recommended daily value of sodium, estimate a number of which 470 is
Recall that percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
Let that number be x,
Thus, the recommended daily value of sodium is, 2350 milligrams.
c.
To calculate: The percent of calories that come from fat in serving macaroni and cheese.
c.
Answer to Problem 29E
The percent of calories that come from fat in serving macaroni and cheeseis
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The label on package of cheese and macaroni states it there are 250 calories in serving it and 110 of those calories come from fat.
Formula used:
Percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
To convert percentage to fraction divide the number by 100.
Calculation:
It is provided that thelabel on package of cheese and macaroni states it there are 250 calories in serving it and 110 of those calories come from fat.
To evaluate the recommended daily value of sodium, estimate what percent 110 is of 250.
Recall that percent proportion is ratio of amount and base is same as percent to 100.
Let that percent be x,
Thus, the percent of calories that come from fat in serving macaroni and cheese is
