Adog weighs 64 pounds, he eats 3/4 cup of food twice a day. his food contains 429 kcal/cup and 6.5grams protein per 100 kcal of energy. what is the dogs daily energy and protein intake? express energy intake as kilocalroies and protein as grams.

the dogs daily energy intake is 643.5 kcal

and, the dogs daily protein intake is 41.8275 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Food taken per day = 2 ×  cup = 1.5 cup

Amount of calories in a cup = 429 kcal/cup

Amount of protein = 6.5 grams per 100 kcal of energy

now,

The total amount of calories taken per day

= Number of cups of food × Amount of calories in a cup

= 1.5 × 429

= 643.5 kcal

also,

100 kcal of energy = 6.5 grams protein

thus,

1 kcal of energy = 0.065 grams protein

therefore,

643.5 kcal of energy = 0.065 × 643.5 grams protein

or

643.5 kcal of energy = 41.8275 grams of proteins

Hence,

the dogs daily energy intake is 643.5 kcal

and, the dogs daily protein intake is 41.8275 grams
