One serving of cream of tomato soup contains 29% of the recommended daily value of sodium for a 2000 calorie diet. What is the recommended daily value of sodium in milligrams? Express the answer upto 2 decimal places.
Solution
Given, tomato soup contains 29% of the recommended daily value of sodium for a 2000 calorie diet
We need to find out recommended daily value of sodium in milligrams
⇒ Now, we know x% of `n = x/100 xx n`
∴ 29% of 2000 calories = `29/100 xx 2000`
= 580 mg
