Answer;

367 calories

Explanation;

  • Protein and carbohydrates both contain 4 calories per gram, while fat provides 9 calories per gram.
  • Therefore, to calculate the energy available from a food, multiply the number of grams of carbohydrate, protein, and fat by 4,4, and 9, respectively. Then add the results together.

34 g carbohydrate x 4 cal/g = 136 cal

42 g protein x 4 cal/g = 168 cal

7 g fat x 9 cal/g = 63 cal

Total = 367 cal

Therefore, roasted chicken multigrain sandwich contains 367 calories of energy
