Explanation / Answer

The nutritional need for a 10 year old girl is calculated as follows,

EER = 135.3 - (30.8 × age) + PA ((10 × weight) + (934 × height)) + 25

= 15.8 - (30.8 ×10) + 1((10 × 27.7) + (934 × 1.384)) + 25

= 15.8 - 308 + (277 + 1292) + 25

= 15.8 -308 + 1594

= 1301.8 KCal per day

Of these 60% (781.08 KCal) should come from.carbohydrates and 20% (260.36 KCal) each should come from proteins and fats.
