Explanation / Answer

Calories in breakfast = 363gm

Now, 4 calories = 1 gm of carbs

So, 363 gm= 1/4*363= 90.75gm carbohydrates

Calories in lunch = 807

Now, 4 calories = 1 gm of carbohydrate

So, 807 calories= 1/4*807=201.7 gm carbohydrates

Calories in dinner= 964 g

Now, 4 calories = 1 gm of of carbohydrates

So, 964 calories =1/4*964= 241 g of carbohydrates

Hence, total carbohydrates in diet= 90.75+201.7+ 241

=533.45 gm of carbohydrates

Similarly,  

For protein,

4 calories = 1 gm of protein

Hence, result will be same as that of carbohydrates = 533.45 of protein

Now for fats,

9 calories = 1gm of fats,

So 363 calories =1/9*363=40.3

In lunch, 1/9 *807= 89.6

In dinner, 1/9* 964= 107.1

So, fats= 237.0

Mrs. King total calories = 2134 gm

Mrs. King total expenditure=

For women, it is BMR + 9.6 * weight in kg + 1.8* height in cm -4.7 * age in years

So, calculateing this give the value = 2078 gm

According ,to institute of medicine , acceptable macronutrient distribution ranges from , is 45 to 65 from carbohydrates, 10 to 35 from protein and 20 to 35 from fats. But in case of Mrs. Jones, her fats ammd is high in comparison of carbohydrates, proteins
