Answer:
[tex]\%Percent = 17.14\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Carbohydrate = 250\ g[/tex]
[tex]Protein = 60\ g[/tex]
[tex]Fat = 40\ g[/tex]
Required
Determine the percentage of protein
First, we need to calculate the total:
[tex]Total = Carbohydrate + Protein + Fats[/tex]
[tex]Total = 250\ g + 60\ g + 40\ g[/tex]
[tex]Total = 350\ g[/tex]
Percentage of protein is calculated as thus:
[tex]\%Percent = \frac{Protein * 100\%}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]\%Percent = \frac{60 * 100\%}{350}[/tex]
[tex]\%Percent = \frac{6000\%}{350}[/tex]
[tex]\%Percent = 17.14\%[/tex]
