Answer 1

Answer:

1.55 kilo calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Erika is making a recipe, we have to calculate the kilo calories.

As we know there are 3 substances in the recipe have calories that are fat, carbohydrate, protein

50 g of fat : There are 9 calories in 1 gram fat

                                       = 9 × 50 = 450 calories

40 g of protein : There are 4 calories in 1 gram protein

                                       = 4 × 40 = 160 calories

235 grams of carbohydrate : There are 4 calories in 1 gram carbohydrate

                                    = 235 × 4 = 940 calories

Total calories = 450 + 160 + 940 = 1550 calories

1000 calories = 1 kilo calorie

1550 calories = 1550/1000 = 1.55 kilo calories

The entire product of this recipe provides 1.55 kilo calories.
