Emily wants to watch her intake of fat per day.
She estimates that the dinner will have 48 grams of fat.

What percentage of her total daily allowance of fat will the dinner be?

Respuesta :

Answer:

One variable equation that is (4800/x) represents percentage of Emily's dinner fat intake compared to total daily allowance of x gram.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume the variable for total daily allowance

lets say total daily allowance of fat = x grams

Fat consumed at dinner = 48 grams

Fat consumed at dinner in percentage = (Fat consumed at dinner/total daily allowance of fat) × 100

= (48 grams/x grams)×100=(4800/x)%

so (4800/x)%  

So one variable equation that is (4800/x) represents percentage of Emily's dinner fat intake compared to total daily allowance of x gram.

lets take one example

lets says total daily allowance of fat for Emily = 100gm

so from derived equation that is 4800/x , we can get required percentage by putting x =  total daily allowance of fat = 100gm

=4800/100 = 48%.

you can change value of variable x according to total daily allowance and get the required dinner intake percentage by equation 4800/x.
