Answer:

884 grams of glycogen

Explanation:

Jordan's body weight = 130 pounds

Rate of storage of glycogen per pound of bodyweight = 6.8 grams

Total grams of glycogen that Jordan can store at maximum capacity:

  <em>bodyweight x rate of storage</em>

      = 130  x 6.8 grams

           = 884 grams

<em>Hence, Jordan is storing </em><em>884 grams </em><em>of glycogen in her body.</em>
