Question

4. If that ice cream provides you with 8% of the DV (daily value) of cholesterol, then how many mg of cholesterol is in that serving. (The DV of cholesterol is 300 mg.) Remember what Daily Values are. They are the generic amounts used on food labels. So one serving of the ice cream is providing 8% of 300 mg so that is how many milligrams

Answer 1

Answer:

24 mg of cholesterol.

Explanation:

The balanced diet contains appropriate amount of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals. The cholesterol is important for the proper functioning of the body and acts as a precursor for the steroid hormones.

As the information in the question, the mg of cholesterol in one serving of ice can be calculated as follows:

Amount of cholesterol = 8% of 300 mg

Amount of cholesterol = 0.08 × 300

Amount of cholesterol  = 24mg.

Thus, the answer is 24mg.
