Fred is about to order a stack of four pancakes with butter and syrup, but he wonders how much he would need to exercise to burn off the Calories from it. He pulls out his cell phone and finds the nutritional information for the stack of pancakes. He notes that a serving has 181g of carbohydrates, 27g of fat, and 16g of protein. Now, he has to convert these values into Calories.

Running at a pace of 8 minutes per mile burns 14 Calories/minute. How many minutes would he have to run at an 8 minutes per mile pace to bum off the Calories from the stack of pancakes?

Answer:

The correct answer is - 73.64 minutes.

Explanation:

We know that each gram of protein and carbohydrate produces 4 calories of energy whereas fat produces 9 cal energy per gram.

So, the Calories from carbohydrates

= 181 ×4

= 724 Cal

and, 27 g fat produces = 27 × 9 = 243 Cal

and, 16 g protien = 16 × 4 = 64 Cal

so the total energy will be - 243+ 724+ 64 = 1031 Cal

Thus, the time Fred need to run = 1031/14 =73.64 min
