Answer 1

First things to take note of to have the correct answer: 
1. Adam's sister is obviously a girl. Then when looking at the data we look at the "Women" column. 
2. We are only looking at the fats data. 

We are asked for the percentage given 48 grams of fat and the daily allowance on fat for women is 70 g. To solve we perform the operation: 

$% = \frac{70-48}{70} * 100 = 31.42% ≈ 31%$
