Answer 1

His daily fat intake is 40.824 g .

His daily Vitamin D intake is 290.304 IU .

Explanation:

1 cup contains 324 kcal

Jacob eats 3.5 cups a day.

So, total calories in Jacob food =
`324 * 3.5`

=
`1134 kcal`

Amount of fat in 100 kcals = 3.6g

Amount of fat in 1 kcal =
`(3.6)/(100)`

Amount of fat in 1134 kcal =
`(3.6)/(100) * 1134`

=
`40.824g`

So, his daily fat intake is 40.824 g .

Amount of vitamin D in 100 kcals = 25.6 IU

Amount of vitamin D in 1 kcal =
`(25.6)/(100)`

Amount of vitamin D in 1134 kcal =
`(25.6)/(100) * 1134`

=
`290.304`

So, His daily Vitamin D intake is 290.304 IU .
