Answer 1

Answer:

Protein - 7%

Fat - 11%

Carbohydrates - 28%

Other ingredients - 54%

Answer 2

Answer:

Protein = 3.5g

Fat= 5.5g

Carbohydrate =27g

Other ingredients =14g

total=3.5+ 5.5+ 27+14= 50g

protein = 3.5/50= 35/500 of 100 = 7%

Fat= 5.5/50 = 55/500 of 100= 11%

Carbohydrate = 27/50 of 100 =54%

Other = 14/50 of 100 = 28 %
