Answer:

We can use the equation:

amount of a given nutrient / % of recommended daily amount = recommended daily amount

Here, we know that 69 grams of carbohydrates is 22% of the recommended daily amount, so we can plug in the given values and solve for the recommended daily amount:

69 / 0.22 = Recommended Daily Amount

Recommended Daily Amount = 69 / 0.22 = 313.64 grams (rounded to one decimal place)

So, the total recommended daily amount of carbohydrates in grams is 313.6 grams.
