Explanation / Answer

1) One ounce is 28.35 grams. So,10 ounces of steak would be 283.5 grams.

2) One ounce is 28.35 grams. So, 155 grams contain,

= 155/28.35

= 5.467 ounces

3) I am 6 feet tall. This comes to 72 inches. (1 foot = 12 inches).

4) My weight is 60 kg. So, I have to take

= 60 x 0.8 g of protein

= 48 g of protein

5) If i take 168 grams of protein, I am taking 3.5 times more of protein or 350%.

6) 1 g of carbohydrate gives 4 Kcal, 1 g of protein gives 4 kcal and 1 g of fat gives 9.1 Kcal.

7) Total Kcal for the day is

242 x 4 = 968 Kcal from carbohydrates

42 x 9.1 = 382.2 Kcal from fats

69 x 4 = 276 Kcal from proteins

Total calories is 968 + 382.2 + 276

= 1626.2 Kcal

8) Percent kcal from carbohydrates,

= 968/1626.2

0.5952

= 59.52%

9) Percent Kcal from fat,

= 382.2/1626.2

= 0.235

= 23.5%

10) Percent Kcal from protein,

= 276/1626.2

= 0.1697

= 16.97%
