Answer 1

Answer:

1) we cannot calculate the energy of the frozen meat until you know the total calories. I am providing you the method of calculation for your reference -

To calculate this, divide a food calories from fat by total calories (this information is on the product's food label) and then multiply by 100. For example, if a 300-calorie food has 60 calories from fat, divide 60 by 300 and then multiply by 100.

Another example for better understanding:

To calculate this, divide a food or drink's calories from fat by total calories (this information is on the product's food label) and then multiply by 100. For example, if a 300-calorie food has 60 calories from fat, divide 60 by 300 and then multiply by 100. That food has 20% of its calories from fat (60÷300=0.2 / 0.2x100=20
