Alexander, who weighs 189 lb , decides to climb Mt. Krumpett, which is 5560 m high. For his food supply, he decides to take nutrition bars. The label on the bars states that each 100-g bar contains 10 g of fat, 40 g of protein, and 50 g of carbohydrates.

One gram of fat contains 9 Calories, whereas each gram of protein and carbohydrates contains 4 Calories.

Nutrition facts Calories per gram
Fat 9
Protein 4
Carbohydrates 4
