Solution

Sure, here's how you calculate the total calories:

  1. First, you need to know that each gram of carbohydrates and protein contains 4 calories, and each gram of fat contains 9 calories.

  2. Multiply the grams of each nutrient by its caloric content:

    • Carbohydrates: 15g * 4 = 60 calories
    • Protein: 2g * 4 = 8 calories
    • Fat: 10g * 9 = 90 calories

  3. Add up the calories from each nutrient to get the total calories:

    • 60 (from carbohydrates) + 8 (from protein) + 90 (from fat) = 158 calories

So, a serving of chips contains 158 calories.
