Question

In a candy bar, 165 calories are from sugar. There are 250 calories in the candy bar. What percent of the calories are from sugar?

Answer 1

66% of the calories are from sugar.

Explanation:

We have been given that

Out of 250 calories in the candy bar, 165 calories are from sugar.

Thus, the percent of the calories are from sugar is given by

`\%=\frac{\text{Calories of sugar}}{\text{Total calories}}*100\\\\\%=(165)/(250)*100\\\\\%=66\%`

Therefore, 66% of the calories are from sugar.

Answer 2

you can simply find out the percentage of the calories from the sugar with this formula :

165/250 x 100%

You will find out that the percentage would be 66 %
