Answer :

To calculate the percent daily value of fat based on the 12 grams stated on the nutrition label, you need to follow these steps: 1. **Identify the Daily Value for Fat**: The Daily Value (DV) for fat is usually set at 65 grams for a 2,000-calorie diet. 2. **Calculate the Percent Daily Value (DV)**: Percent DV = (Amount of Fat in grams / Daily Value for Fat in grams) x 100 Percent DV = (12 grams / 65 grams) x 100 Percent DV = (0.1846) x 100 Percent DV ≈ 18% Therefore, the correct answer is **C. 18 percent**. This means that the package with 12 grams of fat contributes to approximately 18% of the recommended daily fat intake based on a 2,000-calorie diet.
