Answer:

1840

Explanation:

The records of calories for a person is shown below:

Description Calories

Bike, 30 min -270

Breakfast 560

Lunch 770

Walk, 45 min -80

Dinner 990

Ping-pong, 30 min 130

We need to find the number of net calories for a person with the following record.


\text{Net calories}=\text{Calories Eaten}-\text{Calories Burned}


\text{Net calories}=(560+770+990)-270-80-130


\text{Net calories}=2320-480


\text{Net calories}=1840

Therefore, the net calories for a person is 1840.
