A nutrition label states that there are 36 grams of carbohydrates in each serving. This accounts for 12% of the daily value. How many grams of carbohydrates are recommended per day?

Answer :

Answer:

300 grams of carbohydrates are recommended per day

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert 12% daily value into decimal: 12/100=0.12

Since this is a word problem and we have 36 grams and 12% daily value, we should make an equation first.

We are looking for how many grams of carbs should be taken a day, so lets use x as the unknown. We need to find x!

0.12 x= 36 g

Now: divide 36 grams by 0.12

x= 36g/0.12= 300g

x= 300 grams of carbohydrates are recommended per day.
