Answer:

There is no percent left for other foods

Step-by-step explanation:

The total energy consumed was:

E = 2x1.2x10⁶ + 3x6.7x10⁵ =

E = 4.41x10⁶ J

Knowing that 1 cal = 4.184 J

1 cal --------- 4.184 J

y ---------------- 4.41x10⁶ J

By a simple direct three rule:

4.184y = 4.41x10⁶

y = 1.05x10⁶ cal

Which is higher than the 2000 calorie daily food intake, so there is no percent left for other foods.
