Answer: B
Explanation:
Energy expenditure (calories/minute) = 0.0175 x MET (from chart for Gardening) x weight (in kilograms)
(To find out your weight in kilograms, simply divide your weight in pounds by 2.2)
MET = 3.02 (from Chart for Gardening)
MET for Gardening/hr = 3.02 x 60mins = 181.2
Weight (in kg) = 150 ÷ 2.2 = 68.18kg
So applying the formulae above, we have:
Energy expenditure = 0.0175 x MET x Weight
Energy Expenditure = 0.0175 x 181.2 x 68.18 = 216.00 ~ 216calories (ANS)
