A 165lb (75kg) athlete has an average daily intake of 450g of
carbohydrate, 75g of protein, and 100g of fat. What percent of the total
kilocalorie intake is carbohydrate?

Carbs: 450g × 4 = 1800 cal
Protein: 75 × 4= 300 cal
Fat: 100 × 9 = 900 cal
Total calories = 3000 cal
Percent of carbs: 1800÷3000 = .6 or 60?10lb (50kg) marathon runner started her pre-race taper and chose to
