Calculate each of the math problems below and show your work:

1. One cup of chocolate milk contains 15 grams of carbohydrate, 8 grams of fat, and 8 grams of protein. This cup of milk supplies ___164__ calories. 

15 Grams of Carbohydrates=

8 grams of fat=

8 grams of Protein=

Total calories in 15 grams of carbohydrate, 8 grams of fat, and 8 grams of protein is 60 calories + 72 calories + 32 calories = 164 calories.

2. Bleu Cheese dressing, containing 23 grams of fat would yield _? calories.

If 1 gram of fat has 9 calories, what about 23 grams of fat?

nutrients below?

44 grams Carbohydrate= _176____ Calories

36 Grams of Fat= __324____ Calories

37 Grams of Protein= __148___Calories

If 1gram of carbohydrate = 4 calories what about 44 grams=?

fat = 9 calories what about 36 grams=?

If 1 gram of protein = 4 calories what about 37 grams=?

Total calories =

4. What is the percentage of total calories that come from fat in question 3?

Fat Calories: ___324 calories_______
