Q: A food contains 10 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat, and 40 grams of carbohydrate. What is the total caloric content of this food? Use the following caloric values: protein = $$4\ \text{kcal/g}$$, fat = $$9\ \text{kcal/g}$$, carbohydrate = $$4\ \text{kcal/g}.$$

$$(10 \times 4) + (5 \times 9) + (40 \times 4) = 40 + 45 + 160 = 245\ \text{kcal}$$

Q: A person consumes a meal containing 30 grams of carbohydrate, 10 grams of protein, and 5 grams of fat. Calculate the percentage of total calories from fat. Use: carbohydrate = $$4\ \text{kcal/g}$$, protein = $$4\ \text{kcal/g}$$, fat = $$9\ \text{kcal/g}.$$

Total calories: $$(30 \times 4) + (10 \times 4) + (5 \times 9) = 120 + 40 + 45 = 205\ \text{kcal}$$; Fat calories: $$5 \times 9 = 45\ \text{kcal}$$; Percentage: $$\frac{45}{205} \times 100 \approx 22\%$$
