The BMR for a 180lb sedentary man over a 24-h period would be

1 calorie for every 2.2lbs per hour

for a 24 hour cycl that is 24 calories per 2.2lbs

180 lbs / 2.2 = 81.81818

Then we take this value - 81.81818 and multiply it by the amount of calories in one day - 24

81.818181* 24 = 1963,636

Because of his sedentary lifestyle, we add additional 200 calories - that is then 2163,636 calories per day.
