$$ \text{Total Fat} = 13\text{g} \implies 20\% \text{ DV} $$

Analyze the second nutrition label

Using the Balanced Diet Components knowledge point

$$ \text{Total Fat} = 17\text{g} \implies 26\% \text{ DV} $$

Analyze the third nutrition label

Using the Balanced Diet Components knowledge point

$$ \text{Total Fat} = 3\text{g} \implies 5\% \text{ DV} $$
