Don ate 160 grams of carbohydrates, 100 grams of fat, and 70 grams of protein today. What is his total calorie consumption for the day?

A. 1,550 kcal

B. 1,680 kcal

C. 1,820 kcal

D. 1,730 kcal

His total calorie consumption for the day is:

Option C. 1.820 kcal

Step-by-step explanation:

Protein and carbohydrates both contain 4 calories per gram, while fat provides 9 calories per gram, then:

1.) 160 grams of carbohydrates contain:

160 grams * (4 cal/gram) = 640 cal

2.) 100 grams of fat contain:

100 grams * (9 cal/gram) = 900 cal

3.) 70 grams of protein contain:

70 grams * (4 cal/gram) = 280 cal

Then, his total calorie consumption for the day is:

T=640 cal + 900 cal + 280 cal

T=1,820 cal

T=1,820 cal (1 kcal / 1,000 cal)

T=1.820 kcal
