Solution:
A patient is on a 2,000 kcal diet but is meeting only 80 percent of his total energy need. Food item A (20 grams of fat, 20 grams of carbohydrate, and 35 grams of protein) food items could provide adequate calories for the remaining 20 percent. 20 * 9 + 20 *4 + 35 * 4 = 400 ; 2000 *0.20 =400.
