Respuesta :

Answer:

10,93% of a carrot is carbohydrate.

Explanation:

In order to solve this you just have to create a rule of three where 64g is the 100% and you want to calculate how much is 7g in percentage:

[tex]\frac{64}{100}= \frac{7}{x}\\ x=\frac{7*100}{64}\\ x=10,9375[/tex]

So there are 10.9375 % carbohydrates in a piece of carrot.
