Answer:

The correct answer is 1840.96 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be noted that both calories and Joules are units of energy, thus this question is simply a conversion question. To convert 440 calories to joules, we say

1 calorie = 4.184 joules

440 calories = ?

cross multiply

? = 440 × 4.184/1

? = 1840.96 Joules

1840.96 Joules of energy is present in Mr. Beaulieu's breakfast
