In order to determine the associated pecentage of calories from fat, respect to one serving of mashed potatoes, you proceed as follow:

Calculate the quotient between number of calories from fat and number of calories one serving of mashed potatoes:

63/214 = 0.29

next, you mulyiply the previous result by 100:

0.29 x 100 = 29

Hence, there is a 29% of calories of your daily value of fat is in one serving of mashed potatoes
