Question

Convert 154 pounds to kilograms (to one decimal place) and then calculate the non-athlete carbohydrate requirement using 3–5 g/kg/day. Which is the correct non-athlete carbohydrate range after conversion?

Accepted Answer

Approximately 210–350 g/day

Answer

Approximately 100–200 g/day, since the correct conversion involves dividing by 3 instead of 2.2 for kilograms

Answer

Approximately 300–600 g/day which accounts for conversion to moles of carbohydrate rather than mass

Answer

Approximately 154–257 g/day because you double the weight in pounds to obtain grams of carbohydrate needed
