Question

what is the caloric density for this brand of garbonzo beans if the serving size is 130.41 g?
(105.5 cal/130.41 g)100% = 80.90 %
(105.5 cal/130.41 g) = 0.8090 cal/g
(130.41 g/105.5 cal) = 1.236 g/cal

Explanation:

Step1: Recall caloric density formula

Caloric density is calories per unit mass. Given calories = 105.5 CAL and mass = 130.41 g, we use the formula $\text{Caloric Density}=\frac{\text{Calories}}{\text{Mass}}$.

Step2: Calculate caloric density

$\text{Caloric Density}=\frac{105.5\text{ CAL}}{130.41\text{ g}} = 0.8090\text{ CAL/g}$

Answer:

(105.5 CAL/130.41 g) = 0.8090 CAL/g
