If a person requires 2500 calories a day and they want to get 20% of their calories from protein, how many calories should come from protein? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that the person needs 2500 calories each day.
  • Step 2: Identify that they want 20% of their total calories to come from protein.
  • Step 3: Convert the percentage (20%) into a decimal by dividing by 100. This gives you 0.20.
