Answer 1

1.What percentage of the total calories comes from fat?

Calories in 1 gram fat = 9 calories

Calories in 43 gram of fat = 43 x 9 = 387 calories.

2. Calories from saturated fat = 17 x 9 = 153 calories.

3. Heavy whipping cream

4. DV for fat in a 2000 calorie diet = 65g

From the food = 43g

% of DV of fat from this food = 43/65. * 100 =66.15%

5. DV for fat in a 2000 calorie diet = 20g

From the food = 17g

% of DV of fat from this food = 17/20. * 100 = 85%
