Global Expert · Accepted Answer

In a balanced diet of 2600 calories, 12% is protein
∴ Amount of protein in food intake = 12% of 2600=12100×2600=312Similarly, a balanced diet contains 25% fats
∴ Amount of fats in food intake = 25% of 2600=25100×2600=650Similarly, a balanced diet contains 63% carbohydrates
∴ Amount of carbohydrates in food intake = 63% of 2600=63100×2600=1638

Balanced diet should contain 12% of proteins, 25% of fats and 63% of carbohydrates. If a child needs 2600 calories in this food daily, find in calories the amount of each of these in his daily food intake.
