Lately, we
have been discussing how to find the percentage of a number.
Over the next
two days, you will have a few challenges to meet, to prove that you have
successfully learned how to find the percentage of a number. You will also compare two of Ms. Michaelson’s favorite restaurants to help her find out the
healthiest place to eat.
Your job is
to:
·
Visit the Recommended Daily Intake
website to see how much of the following nutrients are recommended in a 2,000
calorie diet:
Calories
Cholesterol
Saturated Fat
Total Fat
Carbohydrates
Fiber
Protein
Sodium
·
Now, visit
the Subway
website and the Quiznos website.
·
Pick two
sandwiches of your choice from each of the menus. (That is four sandwiches in all.)
·
Find the
percentages of the Recommended Daily Intake for the nutrients listed above, for
the sandwiches you have chosen.
·
Create a
table in Microsoft Word displaying your sandwich choices and your percentages.
·
When you have
finished doing this, write a brief summary of which restaurant Ms. Michaelson should eat at based on the notional information. (You may recommend a sandwich if you wish.)
·
Finally,
print out your table and summary, and place it in the completed assignments
basket for a grade.
