Question
A \(70.0-\mathrm{kg}\) person had a quarter-pound cheeseburger, french fries, and a chocolate shake.
a. Using Table 3.7, calculate the total kilocalories for each food type in this meal (round off the kilocalories to the tens place).
b. Determine the total kilocalories for the meal.
c. Using Table 3.10, determine the number of hours o f sleep needed to burn off the kilocalories in this meal.
d. Using Table 3.10, determine the number of hours o f running needed to burn off the kilocalories in this meal.
Solution
The first step in solving 3 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A \(70.0-\mathrm{kg}\) person had a quarter-pound cheeseburger, french fries, and a chocolate shake.a.
