Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If the item you’re eating contains 20g of protein, 35g of carbs, and 15g of fat, this means you would multiply 20x4, 35x4, and 15x9 to find the number of calories contributed by each macronutrient-80, 140, and 135, respectively. Nutrients are always measured in grams.
Detailed explanation-2: -To see how many servings a container has, look at the top of the label. “Servings per container” is listed right above “Serving size.” In the example below, a frozen lasagna serving size is 1 cup. But the container has four servings. If you want to eat 2 cups-or half the package-you’d be eating two servings.
