1. calories in: 1,900, calories out: 1,850

will this person gain or lose weight?

Explanation:

Step1: Compare calories in and out

For each question, calculate the difference between calories in and calories out. If calories in < calories out, it's a calorie deficit (lose weight). If calories in > calories out, it's a calorie surplus (gain weight).

1. \(1500-2000=- 500\) (calorie deficit, lose weight)
2. \(3000 - 2900=100\) (calorie surplus, gain weight)
3. \(1200-1750=-550\) (calorie deficit, lose weight)
4. \(1600 - 1800=-200\) (calorie deficit, lose weight)
5. \(1900-1850 = 50\) (calorie surplus, gain weight)

Answer:

1. Calorie deficit, lose weight
2. Calorie surplus, gain weight
3. Calorie deficit, lose weight
4. Calorie deficit, lose weight
5. Calorie surplus, gain weight
